What happened
DigiCert was selected by the National Energy Public Key Infrastructure (NEPKI) to provide digital certificate infrastructure. This infrastructure will enable rooftop solar and battery systems to communicate securely with electricity distribution networks across Australia. The initial deployment allows devices and network operators to verify each other's identities and protect exchanged data and emergency control commands.

Why it matters
The National Energy PKI was established to provide a consistent national framework for digital identity within the energy sector. Securing these connections is critical for maintaining grid stability as more devices connect to Australia's energy system. This contract win for DigiCert relates to its core business of providing intelligent trust services.
