Factors affecting the market adoption of cyber-security products in energy and electrical systems: the case of SPEAR

In this paper the results of a survey that was performed aiming to identify the main factors that can affect the market adoption of a cyber-security product in the Energy and Electrical systems is presented. In more detail the survey was implemented using the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process method among experts of the H2020 R&D project SPEAR. The survey reveals experts' vision regarding the significance of the critical factors anticipated to influence the introduction and acceptance of SPEAR or similar solutions as a technology for actors of the Energy and Electrical ecosystem.
