Another essential factor for the optimum control and maintenance of electrochemical storage facilities is to provide the plant with a system for processing and interpreting data, issuing reports and managing alarms, both for the technical teams in charge and for customers.
The requirements for periodic maintenance for energy storage products should be identified by the OEM (IEEE 2010). In settings where predictive analytics maintenance is economical, guidance should also be available from the manufacturer that identifies methodologies for assessing when a product may be approaching a failure mode.
At Energy Storage Solutions (E22), we have a highly specialized technical team with many years of accumulated experience in the sector, trained to design, implement, commission and provide assistance in the operation and maintenance stage of any of these subsystems.

Resiliency: Defined as applications that seek to provide extended energy services during system outages. An example is a home system that is outfitted with a separate critical loads panel that allows the combination of rooftop PV and storage to power critical loads for a period of time.
There are many codes and standards relating to safety of stationary energy storage at the local, national, and international levels by UL, NFPA (NEC, 70E), ANSI, CSA, and IEC, among others.
