Energy Plug, Quantum Emotion form joint committee

Mr. Paul Dickson of Energy Plug reports ENERGY PLUG AND QUANTUM EMOTION LAUNCH JOINT STEERING COMMITTEE, ACCELERATE QUANTUM-SECURE BATTERY INTEGRATION FOR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE Energy Plug Technologies Corp. and Quantum Emotion Corp. have successfully formed and completed the first working session of a joint development steering committee established under their Oct. 14, 2025, agreement. The committee has already defined technical integration pathways to embed Quantum Emotion's hardware-based quantum random number generator (QRNG) chips directly into Energy Plug's next-generation energy storage systems. This marks a critical advancement beyond initial planning, enabling prototype development targeted for Q1 2026 field trials with Canadian defence and utility partners. Key milestones achieved in the inaugural session: Architecture finalized for QRNG-secured firmware and encrypted battery management systems (BMS); IP (intellectual property) co-ownership framework ratified under Canadian jurisdiction; Pilot deployment road map approved, with first installations slated for secure telecom and microgrid sites. "Within weeks of signing, we've moved from concept to concrete engineering specifications," said Dr. Ramtin Rasouli, chief technology officer of Energy Plug. Francis Bellido, chief executive officer of Quantum Emotion, added: "Our QRNG silicon is now being designed into Energy Plug's BMS at the chip level. This is one of the first known integration of space-grade quantum entropy into North American energy storage -- delivering true postquantum cybersecurity for critical systems." The collaboration addresses escalating threats: Canada's energy sector faced 23 per cent more ransomware attempts in 2024 than in 2022, with state-sponsored actors increasingly targeting grid control systems. QRNG-enhanced batteries will generate cryptographic keys with true quantum randomness, providing uncompromised entropy and eliminating entire classes of remote exploitation attacks -- even in a postquantum environment. About Quantum Emotion Corp. Quantum Emotion is a Canadian deep-tech company developing quantum-safe cybersecurity solutions based on its patented quantum random number generator (QRNG) and entropy-as-a-service platform, securing data and communications for the quantum era. About Energy Plug Technologies Corp.
