How secure-by-design architectures and structured cybersecurity strategies support resilient, compliant and future-ready BESS deployments. White Paper Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) play a critical role in supporting grid stability and accelerating the energy transition. As these systems become increasingly digital and interconnected, cybersecurity is emerging as a key requirement for ensuring operational continuity, regulatory compliance and long-term asset protection. This white paper explores the cybersecurity challenges facing modern BESS installations and outlines the principles that support secure and resilient system operation, including:
- Governance and risk management frameworks for identifying and mitigating cyber risks
- Secure-by-design development practices and cybersecurity validation measures
- Data, system, and supply chain controls that strengthen operational resilience
