4 FAQs about Maintenance of Wide-Temperature Type Power Storage Cabinets for Mountainous Areas

Who is responsible for ensuring protection during storage?

It is the responsibility of the receiving contractor to ensure protection during storage. The equipment should be placed on a true and solid level surface for storage. The site should have a plan for condensation and environmental control and mitigation prior to the equipment's arrival.

What is preventive maintenance?

Preventive maintenance must be balanced by financial cost to the project. Therefore, the goal is to manage the optimum balance between cost of scheduled maintenance, yield, and cash flow through the life of the system. Preventive maintenance protocols depend on system size, design, complexity, and environment.

These combined generation and storage systems can be “islanded” in remote or isolated areas or grid-tied with the ability to operate both with interaction with the grid or disconnect from the grid to maintain operations separately as needed (e.g., in the event of a grid outage).

Is stationary energy storage safe?

There are many codes and standards relating to safety of stationary energy storage at the local, national, and international levels by UL, NFPA (NEC, 70E), ANSI, CSA, and IEC, among others.
