Alexus for Energy & Utilities
Electricity, gas, heating and hydrogen operators are essential entities under NIS2, closely watched. Alexus unifies evidence across converged IT and OT so readiness and reporting keep pace with a distributed, critical estate.
Energy is an essential-entity sector under NIS2 Annex I, among the most heavily supervised. The hard part is IT/OT convergence: control systems, field assets and corporate IT rarely share one source of truth, yet NIS2 expects risk management and incident reporting across all of it. Alexus builds that single picture.
Aligns with national critical-infrastructure regimes.
NIS2 for Energy & Utilities, in three questions
Yes — energy is a high-criticality sector under NIS2 Annex I.
Essential entity · NIS2 Annex I (Energy)
Large operators are Essential and medium ones Important, and some energy operators are in scope regardless of size.
NIS2 generally applies from medium-sized up — broadly 50+ staff, or annual turnover / balance-sheet total over €10M. (Medium is under 250 staff and up to €50M turnover or €43M balance sheet; larger than that is a “large” entity.) Some entities are in scope regardless of size, and the exact rules are set by your country’s transposition.
Register with your national competent authority once the transposing law applies.
Put the ten cybersecurity risk-management measures in place — and be able to show them working.
Report significant incidents: a 24-hour early warning, a 72-hour notification, and a final report within a month.
Your management body approves and oversees the measures — and can be held personally liable.
Scope is ultimately set by your national transposition — use the self-checks above, or ask us to confirm against your estate.
What makes NIS2 hard in Energy & Utilities
IT/OT split
Operational technology and corporate IT live in different tools and teams, but NIS2 treats them as one risk surface.
Distributed critical assets
Substations, plants and field devices are dispersed and long-lived, making a current inventory genuinely hard.
High-stakes reporting
Incidents in critical infrastructure draw immediate regulator attention; reports must be fast, accurate and complete.
