CEA''s proactive and robust Quality Control and Testing program proactively identifies and resolves issues at every stage of battery energy storage system production – before they impact your business.
Under the Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan, developed with the support of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability Energy Storage Program by Pacific Northwest Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories, an Energy Storage Safety initiative has been underway since July 2015.
The results of the evaluation of existing test procedures are documented in D5.4 and the recommendations have been taken along in the draft standard document for stationary batteries (D5.5). This draft standard document has been agreed upon between the STABALID and STALLION consortia.
Battery materials have the largest influence on battery safety. Therefore the STALLION project has studied several performant battery materials and their influence on system safety. Also the recyclability of these materials and the related safety issues have been studied.
In integration factories, energy storage systems are built with many moving parts, a fact reflected by the large number of CEA findings on system enclosures – amounting to 45% of the total system-level findings (see chart to the left).
Capacity tests are at a more fundamental level and the risk of capacity shortfalls are usually hedged by an implicit rule in battery cell design – that is, to oversize capacity by around 5% at the cell level. Underachieving system efficiency and capacity is often due to either batteries or BOP systems.
Enclosure inspection comprises visual inspection of appearance, strength and rigidity, wiring and cabling, grounding mechanism, and ingress performance. The supporting components and system that form the BOP for a BESS consists of a fire detection and suppression system, a power distribution set-up and a thermal management system.

Transparency in the inspection process can minimize the need for re-inspections and accelerate project completion. The National Simplified Residential PV and Energy Storage Inspection Guidelines highlight common installation mistakes and help to adequately address all items in the inspection process before the inspector arrives on site.
