orvus Energy has received 
DNV Cyber Security Type 
Approval for its Dolphin 
NxtGen Battery Energy Storage Sys-
tem (BESS). See link. The approval 
also covers the Gen 4 BMS Pack 
Controller, extending cybersecurity 
compliance across the entire NxtGen 
product family.
The 
certification 
confirms 
that 
Corvus systems meet the stringent 
cybersecurity requirements in DNV’s 
rules for classification. It validates that 
Corvus ESS solutions are engineered 
to protect critical onboard energy 
infrastructure against evolving cyber 
threats throughout their lifecycle.
The Dolphin NxtGen BESS is de-
signed for applications that require 
a high-energy battery system where 
lightweight is essential, such as fer-
ries, tourist vessels, canal boats, and 
sightseeing vessels. Its space-effi-
cient, rack free design enables flexible 
installation configurations to maxi-
mize utilization of available battery 
room space.
The DNV approval follows an exten-
sive independent assessment of more 
than 50 cybersecurity capabilities, in-
cluding secure system architecture, ac-
cess control, data integrity, and safe re-
mote software and firmware updates. 
The certification also covers data col-
lection and monitoring through the 
Corvus Lighthouse platform, which 
supports real‑time diagnostics and 
advanced analytics.
As vessels become more connected, 
the risk of unauthorized access or 
operational disruption grows. Ener-
gy storage systems, central to vessel 
safety and propulsion, are particu-
larly sensitive.
Corvus ESS solutions are designed to 
prevent external parties from exploit-
ing the ESS as a pathway into the ves-
sel’s wider network. With encrypted 
communication, secure remote ser-
vice, and strict access management, 
Corvus helps shipowners safeguard 
operational continuity and maintain 
system integrity.
This new approval adds to the existing 
Cyber Security Type Approval already 
granted for the Corvus Orca ESS by 
DNV and other major class societies, 
including ABS, Bureau Veritas (BV), 
and RINA—demonstrating a consis-
tent, class‑recognized cybersecurity 
approach across the Corvus portfolio. 
Corvus is now pursuing cybersecurity 
approvals for its full product range.
