Research: Adversarial attacks can degrade demand response profits

This research paper investigates the vulnerability of industrial demand response programs to adversarial attacks that manipulate electricity price forecasts. The study designs specific attacks to degrade the accuracy of price forecasting models and analyzes their impact on energy-intensive production scheduling. Findings indicate that while adversarial attacks can reduce demand response profits, the programs retain a significant portion of their financial benefits when perturbations are subtle and difficult to detect. The effectiveness of these attacks is shown to depend not only on the magnitude of the data manipulation but also on its orientation relative to the sensitivities of the scheduling optimization models.

    Does Demand Response Increase Vulnerability to Cyber Attacks by Adversarial Data Modifications?

    arXiv:2607.06632v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Adversarial attacks are crafted data manipulations that aim to deteriorate the outcomes of prediction or decision-making algorithms. In the energy systems literature, adversarial attacks have been studied with a focus on problems re…
