On June 25, TÜV SÜD awarded HiTHIUM the TÜV SÜD Mark certification for industrial cybersecurity based on the IEC 62443-4-1 standard. This certification signifies that the independently developed BMS platform system by HiTHIUM has reached internationally leading levels in cybersecurity and global compliance, further strengthening the company's competitiveness in the worldwide energy storage market.
Certification Ceremony
Notably, HiTHIUM has also recently passed the product-phase assessment by UL Solutions, based on the dual functional safety standards of IEC 61508 and ISO 13849, becoming the first company in the industry to achieve this milestone.
These two accomplishments establish a dual assurance mechanism of "cybersecurity + functional safety" for HiTHIUM's BMS platform system, setting a new paradigm for global energy storage safety from an innovative perspective.
Building Dual Barriers of "Cybersecurity + Functional Safety"
As the core of battery energy storage systems, the reliability of the BMS directly determines the overall safety performance of the energy storage system. In complex and dynamic industrial environments, safety requirements are particularly stringent. Energy storage systems and their BMS must possess robust reliability to ensure safe and stable operation.
In the field of cybersecurity, the IEC 62443-4-1 standard emphasizes the principle of "secure by design," focusing on product security development lifecycle management and imposing stringent requirements on the entire chain of R&D, production, and operation and maintenance.
This certification demonstrates that HiTHIUM has established a comprehensive safety management system covering the entire product lifecycle, ensuring that every phase meets international high standards. It not only proves that HiTHIUM's products possess independently controllable security features but also builds a trustworthy safety foundation for applications across various scenarios.
In the field of functional safety, IEC 61508 and ISO 13849 are core standards, covering the overall functional safety requirements throughout the lifecycle of energy storage products. The functional safety assessment by UL Solutions further solidifies the company's product safety development foundation and verifies that the BMS meets the stringent requirements of SIL 2 (IEC 61508) and PLd (ISO 13849) safety levels during the phases of safety concept design, system-level design, and hardware-level design.
Setting a New Paradigm for Energy Storage Safety
HiTHIUM has always been committed to the energy storage sector, striving to deliver ultra-safe energy storage products. The certifications and assessments from international professional institutions accelerate the standardization of HiTHIUM’s safety systems. The dual assurance mechanism of "cybersecurity + functional safety" not only meets the entry requirements of European and American markets but also aligns with the global energy storage industry’s growing demand for safety and reliability. This further consolidates HiTHIUM’s leading position in the worldwide energy storage sector, setting a new industry benchmark of "key technology + high standards" for safety.
Moving forward, HiTHIUM will continue to deepen its alignment with international safety standards, driving the upgrade of safety systems and products through technological innovation. The company aims to provide global customers with comprehensive and integrated energy storage solutions, promoting the industry toward higher standards and greater safety.
