This Draft Emergency Response Plan for energy storage facilities, presented by the American Clean Power Association (ACP), is the result of a collaborative member effort initially undertaken by the Energy Storage Association (ESA) in 2019 and continued following ESA’s merger with ACP at the beginning of 2022.
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.
A framework is provided for evaluating issues in emerging electrochemical energy storage technologies. The report concludes with the identification of priorities for advancement of the three pillars of energy storage safety: 1) science-based safety validation, 2) incident preparedness and response, 3) codes and standards.
This document provides guidance to first responders for incidents involving energy storage systems (ESS). The guidance is specific to ESS with lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, but some elements may apply to other technologies also. Hazards addressed include fire, explosion, arc flash, shock, and toxic chemicals.
Additionally, PA 233 requires that financial assurance for large energy storage facilities be posted in increments staggered over time. If your jurisdiction has policies for abandonment in other land uses, consider applying them to BESS. If no such policies exist, consult with your municipal attorney. 6.
Energy storage safety gaps identified in 2014 and 2023. Several gap areas were identified for validated safety and reliability, with an emphasis on Li-ion system design and operation but a recognition that significant research is needed to identify the risks of emerging technologies.
