ESET and EVC Group have established a strategic partnership to bolster Europe’s cyber and energy resilience with the development of advanced battery energy storage systems. The collaboration is centered on the creation of CyberSec BESS, an innovative line of cyber-secure battery energy storage solutions tailored for the European market. This alliance highlights the growing significance of battery storage systems in supporting power grids and essential energy infrastructure, making cybersecurity a crucial focus alongside functionality and reliability.
The partnership was solidified through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), setting the stage for the development, certification, and commercialization of CyberSec BESS. The initiative was formally unveiled on June 25, 2026, at Intersolar Europe in Munich, a premier event focused on renewable energy, energy storage, and related technologies. The project aims to comply with existing and forthcoming European Union cybersecurity regulations while enhancing the long-term strength of critical energy systems across the continent.
CyberSec BESS is designed to integrate European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification with global battery manufacturing prowess. Martin Talian, ESET’s Chief Corporate Solutions Officer, emphasized the importance of incorporating cybersecurity into battery storage from the outset rather than as an afterthought. He noted that the initiative leverages ESET’s experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure to help establish an energy sector that is prepared for both current and future cyber challenges.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, stressed that a robust energy infrastructure requires a comprehensive systems approach rather than merely assembling individual technologies. The partnership merges engineering expertise, advanced energy technologies, and rigorous cybersecurity standards to develop battery storage systems that prioritize security, transparency, operational reliability, and overall performance. The companies anticipate that these attributes will be increasingly vital as Europe’s energy sector continues to evolve.
As noted in the Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 report by Frost & Sullivan, ESET is recognized as the largest global cybersecurity provider headquartered in Europe. The company offers AI-driven cybersecurity solutions for businesses, individuals, and critical infrastructure, supported by advanced threat intelligence, encryption, multifactor authentication, and continuous security monitoring. Through its collaboration with EVC Group, ESET aims to enhance Europe’s energy resilience while facilitating the secure implementation of next-generation battery storage technologies.
