Technical FAQs 4

What is a battery energy storage system container?

A Battery Energy Storage System container is more than a metal shell—it is a frontline safety barrier that shields high-value batteries, power-conversion gear and auxiliary electronics from mechanical shock, fire risk and harsh climates.

Are energy storage systems required in the 2015 NFPA 1?

While the 2015 versions of the IFC and NFPA 1 do contain some requirements for energy storage systems, they are few compared to the 2018 and 2021 versions. The ESS requirements in the 2018 version, while certainly more restrictive than the 2015 version, are relatively modest.

Are there any problems with energy storage?

There have also been issues in the U.S. residential energy storage sector. For example, after five reported fires stemming from its RESU10 battery units, LG Chem issued product recalls in December of 2020 and again in August 2021. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, these fires resulted in property damage and one injury.

Why are energy storage systems important?
