Comments on: Planning the resilient energy infrastructure of the future https://news.mst.edu/2021/11/planning-the-resilient-energy-infrastructure-of-the-future/ Your source for the latest from Rolla Sun, 13 Feb 2022 18:46:34 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.7 By: Vincent Saporita https://news.mst.edu/2021/11/planning-the-resilient-energy-infrastructure-of-the-future/#comment-313574 Sun, 13 Feb 2022 18:46:34 +0000 https://news.mst.edu/?p=40934#comment-313574 As both a BSEE graduate of Missouri S&T (1974) and the Missouri Director EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security, I read the above article with particular interest. Congratulations on your work in this area. Hopefully, funding will follow and our grid will actually become more resilient.

The EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security is an official Congressional Advisory Board (501c3) that is dedicated to protecting the electrical grid from electromagnetic pulses (both natural and man-made) and cyber attacks. Unfortunately, at present, our electrical grid is extremely vulnerable to the above-mentioned threats and could easily be down for a period of months to years. The EMP Task Force welcomes all volunteers, especially those with the authors’ experience and credentials. Please give some consideration to becoming a volunteer for the EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security.
