The Swedish Security Police warns of an increased risk of sabotage of the electricity grid and has called for more resources to monitor.
Erik Nordman of the publicly-owned Swedish electrical transmission system operator Svenska kraftnät stated that increased vigilance could take several forms, saying, “It can be about increasing surveillance around critical infrastructure – it can be IT systems as well. It is quite clear that we have a more serious security situation now.”
The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency warned last month that Sweden is ill-prepared for the looming winter energy crisis and that businesses and vulnerable people may be at risk if shortages and outages take place.
