This success story delves into the critical role of CHIL simulation, employing FPGA IEC 61850 GOOSE, in fortifying microgrid controllers against cyber threats. Collaborative efforts between VEBIC and FREESI laboratories at the University of Vaasa drive the research forward, aiming to develop innovative solutions for securing microgrid operations. Through meticulous configuration and execution control, the team simulates diverse cyber threats, such as one-second delay and man-in-the-middle attacks, to assess their implications on microgrid stability and resilience, thus advancing the future of sustainable energy systems.
