This could include building energy managers, facility managers, and property managers in a variety of sectors. A variety of incentives, metering capabilities, and financing options exist for installing energy storage at a facility, all of which can influence the financial feasibility of a storage project.
Through their efforts, the Energy Storage System Guide for Compliance with Safety Codes and Standards 2016 was developed. This code for residential buildings creates minimum regulations for one- and two-family dwellings of three stories or less.
The intent of solar energy ready requirements is to provide a penetration free and shade free portion of the roof, called the solar zone. This helps ensure future installation of a solar energy system is not precluded by the original design and layout of the building and its associated equipment.
For all of the technologies listed, as long as appropriate high voltage safety procedures are followed, energy storage systems can be a safe source of power in commercial buildings. For more information on specific technologies, please see the DOE/EPRI Electricity Storage Handbook available at: TABLE 1. COMMON COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES
Timely deployment of a safe ESS is the way to document and validate compliance with current Codes, Standards, and Regulations (CSR). A task force under the CSR working group was formed to address compliance with current CSR. Through their efforts, the Energy Storage System Guide for Compliance with Safety Codes and Standards 2016 was developed.
