Critical Risks to Energy Systems | Energy Switch Season 4, Episode 8

The US energy system, particularly our electric grids and pipelines, is constantly at risk -- from extreme events, like hurricanes, winter storms, heat waves and wildfires. And increasingly from cyber attacks, from hostile foreign powers and criminal elements. Enough that the energy industry and the US government are investing billions of dollars and working together to counter these threats. Joining Dr. Scott Tinker this episode is: - Puesh Kumar, Director of CESER at the US Department of Energy - Suzanne Lemieux, Director of Operations Security & Emergency Response at the American Petroleum Institute Originally aired 4/8/2024 on PBS.
