Guidelines under development include IEEE P2686 “Recommended Practice for Battery Management Systems in Energy Storage Applications” (set for balloting in 2022). This recommended practice includes information on the design, installation, and configuration of battery management systems (BMSs) in stationary applications.
This article advocates the use of predictive maintenance of operational BESS as the next step in safely managing energy storage systems. Predictive maintenance involves monitoring the components of a system for changes in operating parameters that may be indicative of a pending fault.
Ventilation systems for stationary batteries must address human health and safety, fire safety, equipment reliability and safety, as well as human comfort. The ventilation system must prevent the accumulation of hydrogen pockets greater than 1% concentration.
This article recommends that the energy storage industry shift to a predictive monitoring and maintenance process as the next step in improving BESS safety and operations. Predictive maintenance is already employed in other utility applications such as power plants, wind turbines, and PV systems.
This publication captures learning and experience from battery storage construction projects, with special emphasis on ensuring the safety of such projects to people and environment.
