4 FAQs about France shuts down inverter connection to telesolar telecom integrated cabinets

Could cellular radios be used remotely to switch off power inverters?

The rogue devices, including cellular radios, were discovered in Chinese-made power inverters that are used to connect solar panels and wind turbines to electricity grids across the world, including the UK. The hidden communications equipment could be deployed remotely to switch off inverters with potentially catastrophic results.

Are China's solar farms at risk of a remote shutdown?

(Christopher Furlong/Getty Images) THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Hidden components in Chinese-made solar power equipment have caused alarm bells in Western capitals amid concerns over Beijing's ability to interfere with power grids. Europe may be particularly vulnerable, experts say, with most of its solar farms potentially at risk of remote shutdown.

Could China's inverters be able to destroy the grid?
