The RP focuses on three main aspects of grid-connected energy storage: safety, operation and performance. These aspects are assessed for electricity storage systems in general, i.e. a technology agnostic approach). Furthermore, recommendations applying only to specific energy storage technologies are provided wherever necessary.
Despite widely known hazards and safety design of grid-scale battery energy storage systems, there is a lack of established risk management schemes and models as compared to the chemical, aviation, nuclear and the petroleum industry.
Grid energy storage systems are “enabling technologies”; they do not generate electricity, but they do enable critical advances to modernize and stabilize the electric grid.
Electrical energy storage (EES) systems - Part 5-3. Safety requirements for electrochemical based EES systems considering initially non-anticipated modifications, partial replacement, changing application, relocation and loading reused battery.
Numerous studies have highlighted the value of grid energy storage for supporting the integration of variable renewable resources, demand charge management, mitigating losses from outages, improving power quality, transmission and distribution upgrade deferral, and off-grid applications.
This work describes an improved risk assessment approach for analyzing safety designs in the battery energy storage system incorporated in large-scale solar to improve accident prevention and mitigation, via incorporating probabilistic event tree and systems theoretic analysis. The causal factors and mitigation measures are presented.
