“…These overriding issues might entail cyber-research for wind energy technology and further developments of control standards and protocols. 1 In reality, malicious cyber-threats impinging the controller performance and thereby the control system cannot meet the mandatory specifications such as supplying the nominal power. So, an efficient control approach that can nullify the detrimental effects of cyber-attacks on wind turbine systems would be a good possible answer to the cybersecurity problem of such systems.…”

Sustainable energy has captured special attention, particularly wind energy which makes wind farms as an attractive target for cyber threats specifically those impinging network cyber subsystems and control protocols. Given the significance of such issue, this article presents a novel anomaly-based resilient pitch angle control methodology by incorporating fixed-time high-order sliding mode observer and adaptive sliding-based controller. The main objective is to supply the required power through adjusting the pitch angle under cyber threat and exogenous disturbance. Residual has been evaluated using the output of the high-order observer in order to detect the cyber-attacks. Once the anomaly detector detects the cyber-attack, its detrimental effects are compensated through the proposed adaptive resilient control framework. The finite-time stability analysis of the closed-loop system is performed through Lyapunov theory. Comprehensive studies are performed on a WindPact 1.5 MW wind turbine system, and validation results verify the effectiveness and resiliency of the proposed resilient control strategy in nullifying the detrimental network and physical effects of cyber-attacks.

“…This helps to correctly identify the type of incident and its root cause(s), which is necessary to achieve effective and reliable condition monitoring, control, and health management of wind turbines. Additional considerations, requirements, and guidelines regarding the cybersecurity aspects of wind turbines and wind farms can be found in a recently published roadmap for wind cybersecurity in [394]. • Condition monitoring and system protections: Wind turbine system's protections are necessary to ensure safety and system integrity in the event of serious uncontrollable fault effects or emergencies.…”
