A new partnership between ESET and EVC Group aims to bolster Europe’s energy and cyber resilience by advancing next-generation battery energy storage systems. This collaboration focuses on developing CyberSec BESS, a cyber-secure battery energy storage solution tailored for the European market. As battery storage systems become increasingly vital to power grids and critical energy infrastructure, the emphasis on cybersecurity has grown, making it a crucial aspect alongside performance and reliability.
The strategic alliance was solidified with a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), outlining the framework for the development, certification, and commercialization of CyberSec BESS. Officially introduced on June 25, 2026, at Intersolar Europe in Munich—a prominent event dedicated to renewable energy and related technologies—the project aims to adhere to existing and forthcoming European Union cybersecurity regulations. This initiative supports the long-term resilience of critical energy systems in the region.
CyberSec BESS is set to leverage European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification, combined with global battery manufacturing capabilities. ESET’s Chief Corporate Solutions Officer, Martin Talian, highlighted the importance of integrating cybersecurity into battery storage from the outset, rather than as an afterthought. Talian noted that this initiative offers a chance to apply ESET’s knowledge in safeguarding critical infrastructure while helping to build an energy sector equipped to handle both current and emerging cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, emphasized that resilient energy infrastructure requires a comprehensive systems approach, rather than merely piecing together individual technologies. He pointed out that the partnership merges engineering expertise, advanced energy technologies, and high cybersecurity standards to deliver battery storage systems that prioritize security, transparency, operational reliability, and robust performance. As Europe’s energy sector continues to modernize, these qualities will become increasingly essential.
According to Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 by Frost & Sullivan, ESET ranks as the largest global cybersecurity provider headquartered in Europe, offering AI-powered cybersecurity solutions across various environments. Through its collaboration with EVC Group, ESET is committed to enhancing Europe’s energy resilience and supporting the secure deployment of next-gen battery storage technologies.
