How the electricity supply on Gotland is protected - "We have a sharpened vigilance"

- To a certain extent, it is of course about physical protection of various important parts of our electricity network, says Kalle Blomberg, CEO of Gotlands elnät AB, a subsidiary of Gotlands Energi AB, Geab.

In general, the electricity company now has a heightened vigilance, says Kalle Blomberg.

These include cyber attacks.

- Just like other players with important infrastructure, we are presumptive targets for cyber attacks.

But we are no exception and we feel secure with the IT and security solutions we have, he says.

Gotland receives power via large submarine cables to Västervik.

So-called total interruptions when the whole of Gotland becomes without electricity have occurred more and more rarely in the past year.

In April, the whole of Gotland was without electricity for about an hour.
