Electrical and Wiring Safety – Proper electrical wiring and connections are critical for fire safety in energy storage systems. NFPA 855 outlines specific requirements for cable management, grounding, and circuit protection to ensure that electrical components do not pose a fire risk.
In a recent article on grid-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) fire safety for our quarterly journal PV Tech Power (Vol.43), Drew Bandhauer, BESS engineer at developer Leeward Renewable Energy, described NFPA 855 as “the primary fire standard guiding BESS site design and installation” for the industry. The latest is the 2026 edition.
Energy storage systems, while essential for grid stability and renewable energy integration, present unique challenges when it comes to fire safety. Issues like thermal runaway, short circuits, and the flammability of certain materials can result in fires that are difficult to manage due to the stored energy within the system.
It also includes electric vehicle (EV) charging systems that integrate energy storage, new requirements for project emergency response plans, recommendations for thermal runaway propagation protection systems, explosion control, backup power supplies, and fire and explosion testing.
Our standardized container products are engineered for reliability, safety, and easy deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
