As cited in the DOE OE ES Program Plan, “Industry requires specifications of standards for characterizing the performance of energy storage under grid conditions and for modeling behavior. Discussions with industry pro-fessionals indicate a significant need for standards ...” [1, p. 30].
This document e-book aims to give an overview of the full process to specify, select, manufacture, test, ship and install a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). The content listed in this document comes from Sinovoltaics’ own BESS project experience and industry best practices.
Table 3.1. Energy Storage System and Component Standards 2. If relevant testing standards are not identified, it is possible they are under development by an SDO or by a third-party testing entity that plans to use them to conduct tests until a formal standard has been developed and approved by an SDO.
As shown in Fig. 3, many safety C&S affect the design and installation of ESS. One of the key product standards that covers the full system is the UL9540 Standard for Safety: Energy Storage Systems and Equipment . Here, we discuss this standard in detail; some of the remaining challenges are discussed in the next section.
Under the Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan, developed with the support of the Department of Energy’s Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability Energy Storage Program by Pacific Northwest Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories, an Energy Storage Safety initiative has been underway since July 2015.
A. Collectively, codes, and standards are intended to cover the safety-related aspects of all stationary ESS technologies and installations from development to installation and commissioning and then operation, maintenance, and through to decommissioning and even beyond that to any repurposing for a second use.
