6 FAQs about [Energy Storage Project Safety]

Are energy storage facilities safe?

These established safety standards, like NFPA 855 and UL 9540, ensure that all aspects of an energy storage project are designed, built, and operated with safety as the highest priority. Energy storage facilities are monitored 24/7 by trained personnel prepared to maintain safety and respond to emergency events.

Why is safety important for energy storage?

Safety is the highest priority for our industry—a commitment reflected by rigorous safety standards and partnerships with the fire service that guide planning, developing, and operating each energy storage project. Fire incidents at energy storage facilities are extremely rare and remain isolated.

What's new in energy storage safety?

Since the publication of the first Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan in 2014, there have been introductions of new technologies, new use cases, and new codes, standards, regulations, and testing methods. Additionally, failures in deployed energy storage systems (ESS) have led to new emergency response best practices.

Are new energy storage systems safe?

Interest in storage safety considerations is substantially increasing, yet newer system designs can be quite different than prior versions in terms of risk mitigation. An uncontrolled release of energy is an inevitable and dangerous possibility with storing energy in any form.

Why is the energy storage industry important?

The U.S. energy storage industry strives to not only meet but exceed the most rigorous safety codes and standards. Established standards ensure that energy storage facilities incorporate the most advanced safety features. The industry promotes the adoption of these standards in communities across America.

Are energy storage systems dangerous?

In general, energy that is stored has the potential for release in an uncontrolled manner, potentially endangering equipment, the environment, or people. All energy storage systems have hazards. Some hazards are easily mitigated to reduce risk, and others require more dedicated planning and execution to maintain safety.
