The U.S. Energy Storage Association assumes no responsibility or liability for the use of this guide. Site owners and operators are advised to consult with safety consultants and legal and insurance advisors concerning liability and other issues associated with the adoption and implementation of operational safety guidelines.
The safe operation of advanced energy storage systems requires the coordinated efforts of all those involved in the lifecycle of a system, from equipment designers, to OEM manufacturers, to system designers, installers, operators, maintenance crews, and finally those decommissioning systems, and, first responders.
As America expands its reliance on advanced energy storage systems, the U.S. Energy Storage Association continues to lead these prevention and response efforts with policymakers, codes and standards bodies, and other stakeholders to maximize the safe and effective use of energy storage technologies to help modernize U.S. electric grids.
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.
Energy storage has emerged as an integral component of a resilient and efficient electric grid, with a diverse array of applications. The widespread deployment of energy storage requires confidence across stakeholder groups (e.g., manufacturers, regulators, insurers, and consumers) in the safety and reliability of the technology.
Ultimately, energy storage safety is ensured through engineering quality and application of safety practices to the entire energy storage system. Design and planning to prevent emergencies, and to improve any necessary response, is crucial.
