FAQS 4

Are battery energy storage systems safe?

This innovation is a major improvement for safer and more efficient energy storage solutions. Battery Energy Storage Systems are essential for the future of energy, but safety must always come first. Each of the safety standards relevant to BESS plays a unique role in ensuring the systems’ safety, reliability, and performance.

What are the UL 9540 standards for energy storage systems?

The following are the most widely recognized benchmarks for system-level safety. UL 9540 is the comprehensive safety standard for energy storage systems (ESS), focusing on the interaction of system components. It evaluates the overall performance, safety features, and design of BESS, ensuring they operate effectively without compromising safety.

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 electric energy storage systems need to be tested?

It is recognized that electric energy storage equipment or systems can be a single device providing all required functions or an assembly of components, each having limited functions. Components having limited functions shall be tested for those functions in accordance with this standard.
