Are there safety standards for batteries for stationary battery energy storage systems?

This overview of currently available safety standards for batteries for stationary battery energy storage systems shows that a number of standards exist that include some of the safety tests required by the Regulation concerning batteries and waste batteries, forming a good basis for the development of the regulatory tests.

What are battery safety requirements?

These include performance and durability requirements for industrial batteries, electric vehicle (EV) batteries, and light means of transport (LMT) batteries; safety standards for stationary battery energy storage systems (SBESS); and information requirements on SOH and expected lifetime.

When will battery safety requirements be replaced by the new standard?

battery safety requirements” (hereinafter, “the New Standard”), was promulgated on May 12, 2020. Consequently the cell safety requirements in GB/T31485-2015 and the pack and system safety requirements in GB/T31467.3-2015 (hereinafter, “the Old Standards”) will be fully replaced by the New Standard starting from Janu

Are flow batteries covered by Article 12 of the new regulation?

Even though batteries with external storage, i.e. batteries that have their energy stored in one or more attached external devices, e.g. flow batteries, are not in the scope of Article 12 of the new Regulation, for the sake of completeness and because flow batteries are used in SBESS, this report covers this type of battery systems as well.

What temperature do I need to test a battery?

Most of the standards require the test at ambient temperatures between 20 and 25°C. Only IEC 62984-2:2020 and UL 1973:2020 do not specify the test temperature. The overcharging voltage varies from 10 % (IEC 62619:2022, IEC 62984-2:2020, UL 1973:2020 and GB 40165-2021) to 150 % (IEC 63115-2:2021) exceeding the upper limit charging voltage.

What are the requirements for a rechargeable industrial battery?

Performance and Durability Requirements (Article 10) Article 10 of the regulation mandates that from 18 August 2024, rechargeable industrial batteries with a capacity exceeding 2 kWh, LMT batteries, and EV batteries must be accompanied by detailed technical documentation.
