Bill > HR7569

This bill, the Energy Cybersecurity University Leadership Act of 2022, directs the Secretary of Energy to establish a program that provides financial assistance, such as scholarships and fellowships, to graduate students and postdoctoral researchers pursuing courses of study that integrate cybersecurity competencies within disciplines associated with energy infrastructure needs. The program aims to support research and development projects at institutions of higher education, provide research traineeship experiences at National Laboratories and utilities, and conduct outreach to historically Black colleges and universities, Tribal Colleges or Universities, and minority-serving institutions. The goal is to address cybersecurity vulnerabilities in energy-related critical infrastructure and enhance the security, resilience, and reliability of the electric grid, oil and natural gas pipelines, and other energy distribution, transmission, and generation systems.
