00:01The European Commission will gradually eliminate the use of Chinese-made inverters in EU-funded energy projects,
00:08a step aimed at protecting critical energy infrastructure from possible cyber threats that could trigger from power outages.
00:16The move follows warnings from analysts that Europe's heavy reliance on Chinese-made solar inverters
00:22could pose risks to Europe's power grid stability, especially as Europe relies more on renewable energy.
00:28The findings indicated that certain countries could, in a worst-case scenario,
00:34undermine European energy infrastructure, potentially even triggering blackouts, an EU official said,
00:40referring to China, Iran, North Korea and Russia.
00:44Invertors are a relatively small but crucial component in modern energy systems.
00:49They play a critical role in converting and regulating the flow of power from renewable sources,
00:54such as wind and solar, as well as storage systems.
00:59While Chinese manufacturers currently dominate the global inverter market with an estimated 80% share,
01:05the Commission considers that sufficient alternative supply capacity exists among producers in countries such as Japan, South Korea, Switzerland and
01:14the United States.
