From\u00a0ESS News
\nPanasonic\u00a0has announced a full-scale cybersecurity monitoring trial for a grid-scale BESS facility in Japan.
\nThe trial, which is performed by Panasonic\u2019s holding company and its subsidiary, Panasonic Solution Technologies (PSTC), and in collaboration with\u00a0Itochu, one of Japan\u2019s largest general trading and investment companies, will take place under mostly simulated conditions. The companies note that technical and operational challenges prevent live validation efforts.
\nIn addition, the press release notes that \u201c[f]or security reasons, the location and detailed specifications of the demonstration facility have not been disclosed,\u201d including the duration and scale of the test, or the number of battery systems and containers that will be tested.
\nThe companies note that an unspecified \u201ccybersecurity monitoring solution\u201d will be deployed at the grid-scale BESS facility to evaluate its monitoring effectiveness. Specifically, the test will assess \u201cwhether continuous monitoring of communications and system behavior under conditions representative of actual grid operations enables early detection of anomalies and accurate situational awareness.\u201d
\nIn addition, the project will \u201cidentify implementation and operational challenges and key considerations associated with deployment in commercial settings,\u201d as the joint effort attempts to understand the realities of grid-scale BESS deployments in the field.
\nThe tech will use logic specifically designed for power-control communications used in grid-scale BESS, including protocols and command behaviors unique to energy management systems such as IEC 61850 or DNP3. Panasonic does offer its branded\u00a0Verzeuse\u00a0solution for automotive cybersecurity, which may serve as some aspect of the backbone of the technology.
