Das #Bundeswirtschaftsministerium (#BMWK) plant ein Maßnahmenpaket, um die #ITSicherheit von #Windkraftanlagen zu erhöhen und die Abhängigkeit von #China zu reduzieren.

Ziel ist es, kritische IT-Komponenten zu prüfen und den Zugriff auf Anlagen nur innerhalb der EU zu erlauben.

Da 90 % der #Permanentmagnete für #Windkraftanlagen aus China stammen, sollen Abhängigkeiten durch den #CriticalRawMaterialAct verringert werden.
