I work at renewable energy company, and support dozens of solar and wind
farms. Operational Technology security is pretty good, there are best
practices and regulations in place requiring separation of internet and
OT networks. Access to the OT network is controlled and logged through
hardened servers with extensive logging.

I feel better about the OT side than the other side, IT - the
customer-facing, corporate networks. There's a much larger attack
surface there.

Not that an event isn't possible, but certainly a harder target than
others.
