ESET and EVC Group have forged a strategic alliance to bolster Europe’s cyber and energy resilience by developing cutting-edge battery energy storage systems. This collaboration focuses on the creation of CyberSec BESS, a new line of cyber-secure battery energy storage solutions tailored for the European market. As battery storage systems become increasingly critical in supporting power grids and essential energy infrastructure, the partnership underscores the importance of integrating cybersecurity with performance and reliability.
The partnership was officially sealed through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), setting a framework for the development, certification, and commercialization of CyberSec BESS. This initiative was launched on June 25, 2026, at Intersolar Europe in Munich, a leading event focused on renewable energy, energy storage, and related technologies. The project aims to comply with current and forthcoming European Union cybersecurity regulations, while enhancing the long-term resilience of vital energy systems.
CyberSec BESS is designed to leverage European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification, combined with global battery manufacturing capabilities. Martin Talian, Chief Corporate Solutions Officer at ESET, emphasized that battery storage is vital to modern energy infrastructure and should incorporate cybersecurity from the outset rather than as an afterthought. He highlighted the initiative as an opportunity to apply ESET’s extensive experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure, contributing to a future-ready energy sector against evolving cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, noted that robust energy infrastructure relies on a comprehensive systems approach rather than merely combining disparate technologies. He stated that the partnership integrates engineering expertise, advanced energy technologies, and stringent cybersecurity standards to produce battery storage systems prioritizing security, transparency, operational reliability, and superior performance. The companies anticipate these attributes will become increasingly significant as Europe’s energy sector continues its modernization efforts.
According to Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 by Frost & Sullivan, ESET stands as the largest global cybersecurity provider headquartered in Europe. The company offers AI-driven cybersecurity solutions for businesses, individuals, and critical infrastructure across various environments, supported by advanced threat intelligence, encryption, multifactor authentication, and continuous security monitoring. Through its partnership with EVC Group, ESET aims to fortify Europe’s energy resilience while ensuring the secure implementation of next-generation battery storage technologies.
