ESET and EVC Group have forged a strategic alliance to enhance Europe’s cyber and energy resilience by developing the next generation of battery energy storage systems. This collaboration focuses on the creation of CyberSec BESS, a new line of cyber-secure battery energy storage solutions tailored specifically for the European market. As battery storage systems increasingly underpin power grids and key energy infrastructure, cybersecurity has emerged as a critical priority alongside performance and reliability.
The partnership was cemented with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), setting a framework for the development, certification, and marketing of CyberSec BESS. The initiative was unveiled on June 25, 2026, at Intersolar Europe in Munich, a major European event dedicated to renewable energy, energy storage, and energy technologies. The project aims to comply with current and future European Union cybersecurity regulations while bolstering the long-term resilience of essential energy systems.
CyberSec BESS aims to merge European expertise in cybersecurity, system integration, and certification with global battery manufacturing capabilities. Martin Talian, Chief Corporate Solutions Officer at ESET, emphasized that battery storage is a crucial part of modern energy infrastructure and should be designed with cybersecurity from the outset. He noted that the initiative allows ESET to leverage its experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure, contributing to an energy sector prepared for existing and emerging cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, highlighted the importance of a comprehensive systems approach for resilient energy infrastructure instead of merely combining individual technologies. He pointed out that the partnership integrates engineering expertise, advanced energy technologies, and high cybersecurity standards to deliver battery storage systems prioritizing security, transparency, operational reliability, and robust performance. The companies anticipate these qualities will become even more vital as Europe’s energy sector continues to modernize.
According to the Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 by Frost & Sullivan, ESET is the largest global cybersecurity provider headquartered in Europe. The company offers AI-driven cybersecurity solutions for businesses, individuals, and critical infrastructure across endpoint, cloud, and mobile environments, backed by advanced threat intelligence, encryption, multifactor authentication, and continuous security monitoring. Through its partnership with EVC Group, ESET seeks to bolster Europe’s energy resilience and support the secure implementation of next-generation battery storage technologies.
