ESET has joined forces with EVC Group to bolster Europe’s cybersecurity and energy reliability by developing advanced battery energy storage systems. This strategic collaboration aims to introduce CyberSec BESS, a cutting-edge generation of cyber-secure battery energy storage solutions tailored for the European market. As battery storage systems increasingly underpin power grids and critical energy infrastructure, the emphasis on cybersecurity has become as crucial as performance and reliability.
The partnership was officially recognized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), laying the groundwork for the development, certification, and rollout of CyberSec BESS. The initiative was unveiled on June 25, 2026, at Intersolar Europe in Munich, a premier event focusing on renewable energy and storage technologies. The project seeks to align with the European Union’s current and forthcoming cybersecurity regulations, enhancing the long-term resilience of vital energy systems.
CyberSec BESS aims to merge European cybersecurity expertise, system integration, and certification with global battery manufacturing capabilities. ESET’s Chief Corporate Solutions Officer, Martin Talian, emphasized the importance of integrating cybersecurity into battery storage from the outset rather than as an afterthought. Talian noted that this initiative allows ESET to leverage its experience in safeguarding critical infrastructure, thereby contributing to an energy sector equipped to handle both existing and emerging cyber threats.
Oliver Garaj, Managing Director of EVC Group, highlighted that robust energy infrastructure relies on a holistic systems approach rather than merely assembling disparate technologies. He elaborated that the partnership combines engineering proficiency, cutting-edge energy technologies, and stringent cybersecurity standards to develop battery storage systems that prioritize security, transparency, operational reliability, and performance. These features are expected to grow in significance as Europe’s energy sector continues its modernization efforts.
According to the Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2025 report 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 and continuous security monitoring. Through its collaboration with EVC Group, ESET aims to enhance Europe’s energy resilience and support the safe deployment of next-generation battery storage technologies.
