At the time of preparing this paper, the US Department of Energy''s Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan is being revised, and the safety of new technologies is a major topic of discussion.
Energy storage systems continue to be a rapidly evolving industry. Thus, the key to safe and up-to-date compliance requirements involves the adoption and application of codes and standards in addition to the development or writing of codes and standards.
For ESS, the standard is UL 9540, Standard for Energy Storage Systems and Equipment. UL 9540 covers the complete ESS, including batery system, power conversion system (PCS), and energy storage man-agement system (ESMS). Each of these components must be qualified to its own standard:
As a basis, electrochemical energy storage systems are required to be listed to UL 9540 per NFPA 855, the International Fire Code, and the California Fire Code. As part of UL 9540, lithium-ion based ESS are required to meet the standards of UL 1973 for battery systems and UL 1642 for lithium batteries.
