6 FAQs about [Safety issues of energy storage equipment]

Are energy storage systems a health and safety risk?

This section presents the relevant hazards associated with various energy storage technologies which could lead to a health and safety risk. For this project we have adopted a broad definition for an H&S risk related to an Electrical Energy Storage (EES) system. This is:

What are the safety requirements for electrical energy storage systems?

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.

What is energy storage hazard?

‘Any hazard caused by the energy storage system which could lead to the risk of injury or loss of life to any stakeholder who is interacting with the system across its lifecycle’. The hazards identified within this section will form an input to later standards gap analysis.

What is an H&S risk related to an electrical energy storage system?

For this project we have adopted a broad definition for an H&S risk related to an Electrical Energy Storage (EES) system. This is: ‘Any hazard caused by the energy storage system which could lead to the risk of injury or loss of life to any stakeholder who is interacting with the system across its lifecycle’.

What happens if a battery energy storage system is damaged?

Battery Energy Storage System accidents often incur severe losses in the form of human health and safety, damage to the property and energy production losses.

Should energy storage systems be notified to fire services?

There is currently no national guidance on the types or sizes of system which should be notified to fire services, which may result in increased risk to firefighters or other first responders at incidents where energy storage hazards are involved.
