EPRI also conducts safety research through the Energy Storage Integration Council (ESIC). ESIC is an open, technical collaborative that brings together various stakeholders to advance energy storage deployments. Anyone can join ESIC, and access the tools and guides, webcasts, and newsletters.
EPRI's energy storage safety research is focused in three areas, or future states, defined in the Energy Storage Roadmap: Vision for 2025. Establishing safety practices includes codes, standards, and best practices for integration and operation of energy storage support the safety of all. Gaps to this future state include:
Interest in storage safety considerations is substantially increasing, yet newer system designs can be quite different than prior versions in terms of risk mitigation. An uncontrolled release of energy is an inevitable and dangerous possibility with storing energy in any form.
In general, energy that is stored has the potential for release in an uncontrolled manner, potentially endangering equipment, the environment, or people. All energy storage systems have hazards. Some hazards are easily mitigated to reduce risk, and others require more dedicated planning and execution to maintain safety.
Resulting primary hazards may include fire, chemical, crush, electrical, and thermal. Secondary hazards may include health and environmental. EPRI's energy storage safety research is focused in three areas, or future states, defined in the Energy Storage Roadmap: Vision for 2025.
