SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (“SolarEdge” or “the Company”)
(NASDAQ: SEDG), a global leader in smart energy technology, today
announces that its portfolio of PV inverters has achieved early
certificationi and compliance with the European Commission’s New
Radio Equipment Directive (RED) Article 3.3 requirements for cyber
security.
Expected to come into effect in August 2025, the Article 3.3
establishes a new regulatory framework for radio equipment and
imposes cybersecurity requirements for all applicable IoT products
sold in Europe. As part of this Article, PV systems that rely on
wireless connectivity will be required to comply with a new and
extensive series of cyber security requirements. These requirements
focus on the improvement of network protection features, personal
data protection and the reduction of fraud risks.
The new regulation holds particular significance for the solar
industry due to its expanding contribution in global energy
generation and its growing importance as critical energy
infrastructure in numerous countries.
Ronen Faier, Interim CEO, SolarEdge Technologies,
comments: “As a leader in the smart energy industry, SolarEdge has
consistently prioritized safety and security in all our product
design, and we believe it is our responsibility to help set the
benchmark for cybersecurity capabilities in PV technology. With the
rapid growth of solar adoption, the need for non-negotiable cyber
security regulations is critical to safeguarding future energy
security. We are pleased to see Europe taking the lead with the
forthcoming RED regulation, which will help ensure homeowners,
businesses and grid operators embrace solar technology with more
robust cyber defenses in place.”
Today’s announcement follows the Company’s recent announcement
that its entire product portfolio also complies with the UK’s
Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (PSTI)
regulation, that has come into effect April 2024.
