Electrical energy storage (EES) systems - Part 5-3. Safety requirements for electrochemical based EES systems considering initially non-anticipated modifications, partial replacement, changing application, relocation and loading reused battery.
Ultimately, energy storage safety is ensured through engineering quality and application of safety practices to the entire energy storage system. Design and planning to prevent emergencies, and to improve any necessary response, is crucial.
The safe operation of advanced energy storage systems requires the coordinated efforts of all those involved in the lifecycle of a system, from equipment designers, to OEM manufacturers, to system designers, installers, operators, maintenance crews, and finally those decommissioning systems, and, first responders.
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.
Designing resilient systems: although it is impossible to design for any scenario, energy storage systems should be designed to withstand common and uncommon environmental hazards in the areas they will be deployed.
Table 6. Energy storage safety gaps identified in 2014 and 2023. Several gap areas were identified for validated safety and reliability, with an emphasis on Li-ion system design and operation but a recognition that significant research is needed to identify the risks of emerging technologies.
