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

Rhea-AI Summary

Energy Plug (OTCQB: PLGGF) and Quantum eMotion formed a Joint Development Steering Committee and held its first working session on November 13, 2025.

Key outcomes: QRNG chips will be embedded into Energy Plug's next-generation battery management systems; an IP co-ownership framework was ratified under Canadian law; technical architecture for QRNG-secured firmware was finalized; and prototype development is targeted for Q1 2026 field trials with Canadian defence and utility partners. A pilot deployment roadmap was approved, with first installations planned for secure telecom and microgrid sites.

Positive

• Prototype development targeted for Q1 2026
• IP co-ownership framework ratified under Canadian jurisdiction
• QRNG chips being designed into BMS at the chip level
• Pilot deployments approved for telecom and microgrid sites

Negative

• None.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 13, 2025) - Energy Plug Technologies Corp. (CSE: PLUG) (OTCQB: PLGGF) (FSE: 6GQ) and Quantum eMotion Corp. (TSXV: QNC) (OTCQB: QNCCF) today announced the successful formation and first working session of the Joint Development Steering Committee established under their October 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 co-ownership framework ratified under Canadian jurisdiction
• Pilot deployment roadmap 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, CTO of Energy Plug.

Francis Bellido, CEO 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 post-quantum cybersecurity for critical systems."

The collaboration addresses escalating threats: Canada's energy sector faced 23% 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 post-quantum environment ¹.
