30 thousand electric vehicles stopped working along with all electric filling stations in Lithuania. As Mash learned, all thanks to Russian hackers from the Just Evil group (ex-KillNet).

Russian cyber specialists gained access to the entire management system of the state-owned company Ignitis Grup?, which is engaged in the production of electricity, its distribution and provision of services throughout the Baltic states. And also in Finland and Poland.

They promised to publish data on all clients, among them, for example, Ikea, which left the Russian Federation and Ivel’s access keys, and then block access to charging stations forever.

I love the single point of failure aspect.
Years ago AU blew up some coal fired plants. They relied on some renewables and a submarine cable between AU proper and Tanzania. The cable fried. Needed lots of diesel generators as I recall.

You can have your solar panels
and your turbines on the hills;
You can use the warmth of sunshine
to reduce your heating bills.

You can dream you’re self-sufficient
as you weed your vegie bed;
As long as you make sure to keep
A diesel in the shed.
