Energy Storage System and Component Standards 2. If relevant testing standards are not identified, it is possible they are under development by an SDO or by a third-party testing entity that plans to use them to conduct tests until a formal standard has been developed and approved by an SDO.
It is recognized that electric energy storage equipment or systems can be a single device providing all required functions or an assembly of components, each having limited functions. Components having limited functions shall be tested for those functions in accordance with this standard.
Until existing model codes and standards are updated or new ones developed and then adopted, one seeking to deploy energy storage technologies or needing to verify an installation's safety may be challenged in applying current CSRs to an energy storage system (ESS).
Safety standard for stationary batteries for energy storage applications, non-chemistry specific and includes electrochemical capacitor systems or hybrid electrochemical capacitor and battery systems. Includes requirements for unique technologies such as flow batteries and sodium beta (i.e., sodium sulfur and sodium nickel chloride).
The standard sets out the requirements for the installation and maintenance in buildings of stationary batteries having a stored capacity exceeding 1 kWh, or a floating voltage of 115 V but not exceeding 650 V. Applies to both battery rooms and battery cabinets.
The 2017 NEC is likely to replace references to ESS installation in Article 480 and has proposed a new Article 706 Energy Storage Systems that consider the application of electrochemical energy storage along with other types of energy storage that are referenced in other Articles within the code (e.g., PV, Wind, etc.)
