Are energy storage codes & standards needed?
Discussions with industry professionals indicate a significant need for standards ” [1, p. 30]. Under this strategic driver, a portion of DOE-funded energy storage research and development (R&D) is directed to actively work with industry to fill energy storage Codes & Standards (C&S) gaps.
Does industry need energy storage standards?
As cited in the DOE OE ES Program Plan, “Industry requires specifications of standards for characterizing the performance of energy storage under grid conditions and for modeling behavior. Discussions with industry professionals indicate a significant need for standards ” [1, p. 30].
What safety standards affect the design and installation of ESS?
As shown in Fig. 3, many safety C&S affect the design and installation of ESS. One of the key product standards that covers the full system is the UL9540 Standard for Safety: Energy Storage Systems and Equipment . Here, we discuss this standard in detail; some of the remaining challenges are discussed in the next section.
Does energy storage need C&S?
Energy storage has made massive gains in adoption in the United States and globally, exceeding a gigawatt of battery-based ESSs added over the last decade. While a lack of C&S for energy storage remains a barrier to even higher adoption, advances have been made and efforts continue to fill remaining gaps in codes and standards.
