Are battery energy storage systems safe?
WASHINGTON, D.C., March 28, — Today, the American Clean Power Association (ACP) released a comprehensive framework to ensure the safety of battery energy storage systems (BESS) in every community across the United States, informed by a new assessment of previous fire incidents at BESS facilities.
Are energy storage facilities safe?
“The energy storage industry is committed to a proactive and tireless approach to safety and reliability. At its core, energy storage facilities are critical infrastructure designed to protect people from power outages,” said ACP VP of Energy Storage Noah Roberts.
Should battery storage facilities comply with NFPA 855?
Ensuring Safety at All Future Energy Storage Facilities: Requiring all battery storage facilities to comply with the latest published version of NFPA 855. State and local governments should proactively adopt and enforce this safety standard.
What is a modular battery cabinet?
The modular battery cabinet makes transportation and installation easier, as the cabinet can be lifted with the batteries inside. High-efficiency battery modules with increased internal voltage enhance performance, while the modular design allows for flexible, scalable solutions tailored to your needs.
What safety measures should be included in a Bess site design?
Proactive safety measures can be included in a BESS site design to minimize the risk of a BESS fire. Consider the following before installing a BESS: Comply with state and local siting, zoning, marking, and permitting requirements to ensure site suitability.
