e a battery storage system.The best-case scenario is when a solar system is already designed with storage in mind, known as a storage-ready solar system. In these systems, it should be an easy, almost plug-and-play process to add storage (more on making a solar
The required battery storage system size is based on the solar PV system size determined for building types listed in Table 140.10-B, including mixed-occupancy buildings. The total capacities of a battery storage system shall be no less than those calculated from the equations above.
All buildings that are required by Section 140.10 (a) to have a PV system shall also have a battery storage system meeting the minimum qualification requirements of Reference Joint Appendix JA12. The rated energy capacity and the rated power capacity shall be not less than the values determined by Equation 140.10-B and Equation 140.10-C.
A battery storage system can be installed as a standalone system for additional compliance credit, when not required prescriptively. Also, a battery system larger than the prescriptive requirement can be used to tradeoff for a smaller solar PV system. Are There Exceptions? Yes.
All newly constructed building types specified in Table 140.10-A, or mixed occupancy buildings where one or more of these building types constitute at least 80 percent of the floor area of the building, shall have a newly installed photovoltaic (PV) system meeting the minimum qualification requirements of Reference Joint Appendix JA11.
According to NEC Article 690, solar photovoltaic systems must align with the correct PV output polarity to link with energy storage systems and follow rules for a rapid shutdown. Designers need to pay close attention to these regulations, particularly regarding their systems' energy storage.
