"Smart grids and ethics: A case study"

This case study explores the principal ethical issues that occur in the use of smart information systems (SIS) in smart grids and offers suggestions as to how they might be addressed.

The key topics raised by interviewees revolved around privacy and to some extent cybersecurity. (Full article...)
