6 FAQs about [Domestic regulations on land transportation of lithium batteries for energy storage]

Are domestic lithium-ion battery storage systems safe?

According to the current standards, domestic lithium-ion battery storage systems are covered by the safety standards. The first edition of IEC 62933-5-2, which has recently been published, is specifically designed for the safety of domestic energy storage systems.

Can lithium-ion battery storage systems be abused?

There is limited experience with fires involving domestic lithium-ion battery storage systems. However, with the worldwide growth of EV and BESS applications, it is important to improve our understanding of how large battery systems behave when abused.

Are battery energy storage systems subject to environmental permitting?

DEFRA is planning to bring battery energy storage systems (BESS) into the environmental permitting regime. However, some operators may be unaware that they may be subject to it already, putting themselves in potential legal jeopardy.

Do lithium-ion batteries need to comply with transportation safety regulations?

Lithium-ion batteries need to comply with transportation safety regulations. These regulations are separate from electrical safety regulations and are part of the dangerous goods regulations. Compliance is required for sub-suppliers, manufacturers to distributors, and for batteries in or outside of products.

What are the international standards for battery energy storage systems?

According to Appendix 1, there are international standards for domestic battery energy storage systems (BESSs). When a standard exists as a British standard (BS) based on a European (EN or HD) standard, the BS version is referenced. The standards are divided into the following categories: Safety standards for electrical installations.

Are domestic battery energy storage systems a safety hazard?

Even though few incidents with domestic battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are known in the public domain, the use of large batteries in the domestic environment represents a safety hazard. This report undertakes a review of the technology and its application, in order to understand what further measures might be required to mitigate the risks.
