Are energy storage systems compliant?
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.
What is an energy storage system (ESS)?
Covers an energy storage system (ESS) that is intended to receive and store energy in some form so that the ESS can provide electrical energy to loads or to the local/area electric power system (EPS) when needed. Electrochemical, chemical, mechanical, and thermal ESS are covered by this Standard.
Are electrochemical energy storage systems ul 9540 certified?
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.
How are energy storage systems regulated?
In some contexts, for energy storage systems, compliance regulations take the form of a state adopting a code, which then references and requires testing and listing or adherence to a standard. Some cities, counties, and special administrative districts (e.g., school or sewer districts) also adopt locally amended codes for their environments.
