Do energy storage systems need a safety assessment?
Safety Assessment: As more energy storage systems have become operational, new safety features have been mandated through various codes and standards, professional organizations, and learned best practices. The design and commissioning teams need to stay current so that required safety assessments can be performed during commissioning.
What is a commissioning plan?
Commissioning is a required process in the start-up of an energy storage system. This gives the owner assurance that the system performs as specified. A Commissioning Plan prepared and followed by the project team can enable a straightforward and timely process, ensuring safe and productive operation following handoff.
Why is risk mitigation important for energy storage systems?
Global incidents underscore the critical need for proactive risk mitigation. The Hazardous Mitigation Analysis (HMA) and mandatory UL and 9540A testing are crucial components of the design and commissioning process for any reasonably sized Energy Storage System (ESS).
How do energy storage systems work?
Energy storage systems (ESS) store energy in batteries until needed. These systems capture generated energy (often paired with renewable sources such as wind or solar) and supply it to end users during off hours. The battery ESS consists of multiple battery cells, creating a large system with capacities in the hundreds of kilowatt-hours.
Which components of a battery energy storage system should be factory tested?
Ideally, the power electronic equipment, i.e., inverter, battery management system (BMS), site management system (SMS) and energy storage component (e.g., battery) will be factory tested together by the vendors. Figure 2. Elements of a battery energy storage system
Why do design & commissioning teams need to stay current?
The design and commissioning teams need to stay current so that required safety assessments can be performed during commissioning. Safety assessments must include all appropriate documentation, indicating which safety-related functions were checked, since not all failure-related tests can be performed without damage to the system.
