the road to energy storage safety

What is the energy storage roadmap?

First established in and founded on EPRI's mission of advancing safe, reliable, affordable, and clean energy for society, the Energy Storage Roadmap envisioned a desired future for energy storage applications and industry practices in and identified the challenges in realizing that vision.

What's new in energy storage safety?

Since the publication of the first Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan in , 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.

Why was the energy storage roadmap updated in ?

The Energy Storage Roadmap was reviewed and updated in to refine the envisioned future states and provide more comprehensive assessments and descriptions of the progress needed (i.e., gaps) to achieve the desired vision.

Why are energy storage systems important?

gns and product launch delays in the future.IntroductionEnergy storage systems (ESS) are essential elements in global eforts to increase the availability and reliability of alternative energy sources and to

What are energy storage safety gaps?

Energy storage safety gaps identified in and . 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.

How can energy storage be used in future states?

Target future states collaboratively developed as visions for the beneficial use of energy storage. Click on an individual state to explore identified gaps to achievement. Energy storage is essential to a clean and modern electricity grid and is positioned to enable the ambitious goals for renewable energy and power system resilience.

The areas of focus throughout the roadmap that are relevant to all three objectives include electrical safety, fire, and smoke hazard detection and mitigation, health and environmental hazards, natural and -man-made disasters, ventilation and thermal management, and system controls.
