Do energy storage systems need a CSR?

Until existing model codes and standards are updated or new ones developed and then adopted, one seeking to deploy energy storage technologies or needing to verify an installation’s safety may be challenged in applying current CSRs to an energy storage system (ESS).

Do ESS systems and components meet safety standards?

The ability to state, with certainty, that an ESS system or component parts meets the provisions of one or more applicable safety standards supports the timely acceptance of safe ESS systems and components.

How many kilowatts does an ESS system need?

However, codes and standards for ESS must be written to cover an extremely wide range of systems, from a few kilowatts and kilowatt-hours to hundreds of megawatts and more than a gigawatt-hour, and from 48-volt residential ESS to 1,500-volt grid-scale units. These diverse systems have widely varying validation needs.

What are ESS safety standards?

Considering ESS safety from a ground-up perspective, standards will apply to the smallest parts of the system (e.g., wires, relays, switches, etc.) to address their design, construction, and safety features to serve their intended purpose.

What's new in energy storage safety?

Since the publication of the first Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan in 2014, there have been introductions of new technologies, new use cases, and new codes, standards, regulations, and testing methods. Additionally, failures in deployed energy storage systems (ESS) have led to new emergency response best practices.
