    FAQs about Technical standard planning requirements for energy storage cabinets

    Does industry need standards for energy storage?

    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].

    Does energy storage need C&S?

    Energy storage has made massive gains in adoption in the United States and globally, exceeding a gigawatt of battery-based ESSs added over the last decade. While a lack of C&S for energy storage remains a barrier to even higher adoption, advances have been made and efforts continue to fill remain-ing gaps in codes and standards.

    What safety standards affect the design and installation of ESS?

    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.

    How can utilities specify ESS characteristics?

    As stated earlier, EPRI ESIC has developed detailed energy storage specifi-cations which utilities can use to specify ESS characteristics. The utilities, in their request for proposals, can specify which standards apply to meet the technical specifications.

    Should energy storage safety test information be disseminated?

    Another long-term benefit of disseminating safety test information could be baselining minimum safety metrics related to gas evolution and related risk limits for crea-tion of a pass/fail criteria for energy storage safety test-ing and certification processes, including UL 9540A.

    Can the energy storage industry access critical tools for 100 mw projects?

    The DOE sponsored an effort to gather input from traditional risk products and finance providers serving more established technologies (e.g., wind, gas generation) to identify how the energy storage industry can access critical tools needed for 100 MW or larger scale projects.
