Energy Plug and Quantum eMotion Launch Joint Steering Committee, Accelerate Quantum-Secure Battery Integration for Critical Infrastructure

QNC · Price

Executive Summary

  • Energy Plug Technologies and Quantum eMotion announced the formation of a Joint Development Steering Committee, moving from concept to concrete engineering specifications.
  • The committee finalized architecture for QRNG‑secured firmware and encrypted battery management systems, and ratified an IP co‑ownership framework under Canadian law.
  • A pilot deployment roadmap was approved, targeting Q1 2026 field trials with Canadian defence and utility partners and initial installations at secure telecom and microgrid sites.

Key Details

  • Joint Development Steering Committee held its first working session following the October 14 2025 agreement between the two companies.
  • Technical integration pathway defined to embed Quantum eMotion’s hardware‑based Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) chips directly into Energy Plug’s next‑generation energy storage systems.
  • Architecture finalized for QRNG‑secured firmware and encrypted Battery Management Systems (BMS).
  • IP co‑ownership framework ratified under Canadian jurisdiction, ensuring shared rights to jointly developed technology.
  • Pilot deployment roadmap approved: first installations slated for secure telecom and microgrid sites; field trials planned for Q1 2026 with Canadian defence and utility partners.
  • Quote – Dr. Ramtin Rasouli, CTO of Energy Plug: “Within weeks of signing, we’ve moved from concept to concrete engineering specifications.”
  • Quote – Francis Bellido, CEO of Quantum eMotion: “Our QRNG silicon is now being designed into Energy Plug’s BMS at the chip level… delivering true post‑quantum cybersecurity for critical systems.”
  • Contextual data: Canada’s energy sector experienced a 23 % increase in ransomware attempts in 2024 versus 2022, highlighting the need for quantum‑grade security.
