About this report
Backup power and redundancy systems have moved from being technical infrastructure details to becoming a core national resilience capability within NATO and the European Union.
In a security environment characterised by hybrid attacks, cyber operations, kinetic strikes and energy coercion, the decisive vulnerability is not only the initial loss of grid power but the inability to sustain assured electricity to mission-critical nodes under prolonged stress.
Key questions this report answers
- Why have backup power and redundancy systems become a core national resilience capability within NATO and the EU?
- What performance requirements and adequacy thresholds define assured electricity to mission-critical nodes under prolonged stress?
- What is the system architecture and how do components integrate under hybrid, cyber and kinetic threats?
- What industrial base and value-chain bottlenecks arise, and what are the implications for companies, research and capital actors?
Inside this report
