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.

What is Article 12 of the regulation concerning batteries & waste batteries (EU) 2023/1542?

Article 12 of the Regulation concerning batteries and waste batteries (EU) 2023/1542 addresses safety of stationary battery energy storage systems.

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 is the EU Battery regulation 2023/1542?

In July 2023, a new EU battery regulation (Regulation 2023/1542) was approved by the EU. The aim of the regulation is to create a harmonized legislation for the sustainability and safety of batteries. The regulation started to apply on 18 February 2024. Until 18 August 2025, the regulation will coexist with the Battery Directive (2006/66/EC).

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.
