In November, a commercial dispute between two inverter suppliers - Sol-Ark and Deye - led to solar power inverters in the U.S. and elsewhere being disabled from China, highlighting the risk of foreign influence over local electricity supplies and causing concern among government officials, three people familiar with the matter said.
Huawei is the world''s largest supplier of inverters, accounting for 29% of shipments globally in 2022, followed by Chinese peers Sungrow and Ginlong Solis, according to consultancy Wood Mackenzie. German solar developer 1Komma5 said, however, that it avoids Huawei inverters, because of the brand''s associations with security risks.
However, the recent findings show that some contain unauthorized components, like the hidden cellular radios that can bypass firewalls and control the devices from a distance abroad. Experts warn that these rogue devices may allow malicious actors to interfere with, or even shut down, important elements of the power grid.
"If you remotely control a large enough number of home solar inverters, and do something nefarious at once, that could have catastrophic implications to the grid for a prolonged period of time," said Uri Sadot, cyber security program director at Israeli inverter manufacturer SolarEdge.
