Smart Grid Communication

IEC 61850 is one of the most prominent communication standards adopted by the smart grid community due to its high scalability, multi-vendor interoperability, and support for several input/output devices. Generic Object-Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE), which is a widely used communication protocol defined in IEC 61850, provides reliable and fast transmission of events for the electrical substation system. This paper investigates the security vulnerabilities of this protocol and analyzes the potential impact on the smart grid by rigorously analyzing the security of the GOOSE protocol using an automated process and identifying vulnerabilities in the context of smart grid communication. The vulnerabilities are tested using a real-time simulation and industry standard hardware-in-the-loop emulation. An in-depth experimental analysis is performed to demonstrate and verify the security weakness of the GOOSE publish-subscribe protocol towards the substation protection within the smart grid setup. It is observed that an adversary who might have familiarity with the substation network architecture can create falsified attack scenarios that can affect the physical operation of the power system. Extensive experiments using the real-time testbed validate the theoretical analysis, and the obtained experimental results prove that the GOOSE-based IEC 61850 compliant substation system is vulnerable to attacks from malicious intruders.

Lahirnya konsep Smart Grid tidak lepas dari issue global terkait dampak lingkungan hidup akibat penggunaan energy berbahan fosil secara massif yang semakin hari cadangan energy yang tersimpan akan habis dalam beberapa tahun kedepan dan diperlukan sumber energy baru yang terbarukan (non fosil).  Implementasi Smart Grid sudah banyak di terapkan dibeberapa negara, termasuk di Indonesia, konsep Smart Grid dan prototipe sudah diimplementasikan dibeberapa kota walau populasinya belum banyak. Pilar utama selain listrik, dalam konsep Smart Grid ini adalah komunikasi dan IT, dimana diperlukan komunikasi dua arah antar mesin dan saling terintegrasi antar grid. Pada kanvas ini diusulkan konsep MUSI (Multy Utility Service Infrastructure) sebagai media komunikasi dalam implementasi Smart Grid dengan menggunakan jenis kabel OPLC (Optical Low Composite Cable), dimana dua infrastruktur yang berbeda menjadi satu konsep. Pada pembahasan ini metode yang digunakan adalah studi literature, pengamatan dan data, ondesk survey, analisa keekonomian (techno economy) dan pengambilan kesimpulan. Hasil dari analisa finansial yang dilakukan bahwa dengan menggunakan model MUSI yang diajukan, NPV dengan MARR 20% didapatkan nilai positif, dan IRR sekitar 34%, sementara jika dilakukan dengan metode konvensional, NPV dengan MARR 20% didapatkan nilai negatif, dan IRR dibawah 0% (negatif).

Time Critical

Since the 1990s, the digitalization process has transformed the communication infrastructure within the electrical grid: proprietary infrastructures and protocols have been replaced by the IEC 61850 approach, which realizes interoperability among vendors. Furthermore, the latest networking solutions merge operational technologies (OTs) and informational technology (IT) traffics in the same media, such as time-sensitive networking (TSN)—standard, interoperable, deterministic, and Ethernet-based. It merges OT and IT worlds by defining three basic traffic types: scheduled, best-effort, and reserved traffic. However, TSN demands security against potential new cyberattacks, primarily, to protect real-time critical messages. Consequently, security in the smart grid has turned into a hot topic under regulation, standardization, and business. This survey collects vulnerabilities of the communication in the smart grid and reveals security mechanisms introduced by international electrotechnical commission (IEC) 62351-6 and how to apply them to time-sensitive networking.

The operation of the smart grid is anticipated to rely profoundly on distributed microprocessor-based control. Therefore, interoperability standards are needed to address the heterogeneous nature of the smart grid data. Since the IEC 61850 emerged as a wide-spread interoperability standard widely accepted by the industry, the Sampled Measured Values method has been used to communicate digitized voltage and current measurements. Realizing that current and voltage measurements (i.e., feedback measurements) are necessary for reliable and secure noperation of the power grid, firstly, this manuscript provides a detailed analysis of the Sampled Measured Values protocol emphasizing its advantages, then, it identifies vulnerabilities in this protocol and explains the cyber threats associated to these vulnerabilities. Secondly, current efforts to mitigate these vulnerabilities are outlined and the feasibility of using neural network forecasters to detect spoofed sampled values is investigated. It was shown that although such forecasters have high spoofed data detection accuracy, they are prone to the accumulation of forecasting error. Accordingly, this paper also proposes an algorithm to detect the accumulation of the forecasting error based on lightweight statistical indicators. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is experimentally verified in a laboratory-scale smart grid testbed.
