National indicators for energy storage management systems

What's new in energy storage safety?

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.

What are the standards for stationary energy storage systems in India?

The Bureau of Indian standards governs testing protocols for stationary energy storage systems for the country of India. As examples of standards, IS-1651 provides information on lead-acid cells and batteries using tubular positive plates and IS-1652 is for lead-acid cells and batteries with flat positive plates.

Where can I find performance and testing protocols for stationary energy storage systems?

The United States has several sources for performance and testing protocols on stationary energy storage systems. This research focuses on the protocols established by National Labs (Sandia National Laboratories and PNNL being two key labs in this area) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

Can FEMP assess battery energy storage system performance?

This report describes development of an effort to assess Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) performance that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) and others can employ to evaluate performance of deployed BESS or solar photovoltaic (PV) +BESS systems.

Who are the authors of a protocol for measuring energy storage systems?

David R. Conover, Alasdair J. Crawford, Summer R. Ferreira, Jason Fuller, Sri Nikhil Gourisetti, David M. Rosewater, David A. Schoenwald, Vilayanur Viswanathan. Protocol for Uniformly Measuring and Expressing the Performance of Energy Storage Systems. Pacific Northwest National Labs and Sandia National Labs Report, 2016.

How to maintain quality and standards for battery energy storage systems?

6.10.1. In order to maintain quality and standards for Battery Energy Storage Systems, the Central Government may consider issuing an "Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) for BESS" for power sector applications, similar to the list of ALMM for Solar Photovoltaic Modules issued by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE).
