Lithium-ion Battery Storage Technical Specifications
The BESS and all associated components must comply with all codes and standards relevant to the operation and installation of energy storage equipment. All installed equipment must be
NYSERDA published the Battery Energy Storage System Guidebook, most-recently updated in December 2020, which contains information and step-by-step instructions to support local governments in New York in managing the development of residential, commercial, and utility-scale BESS in their communities.
Battery Energy Storage Systems represent the future of grid stability and energy efficiency. However, their successful implementation depends on the careful planning of key site requirements, such as regulatory compliance, fire safety, environmental impact, and system integration.
In addition to NYSERDA's BESS Guidebook, ESA issued the U.S. Energy Storage Operational Safety Guidelines in December 2019 to provide the BESS industry with a guide to current codes and standards applicable to BESS and provide additional guidelines to plan for and mitigate potential operational hazards.
Employers must consider exposure to these hazards when developing safe work practices and selecting personal protective equipment (PPE). That is where Article 320, Safety Requirements Related to Batteries and Battery Rooms comes in.
