In the context of Energy Storage Systems (ESS), including Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), UL 9540 and 9540A standards have been developed. UL 9540 is the original standard, while 9540A represents the updated version. These standards outline the requirements and guidelines for safe and efficient ESS operation.
In December 2021, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved the revised CIP-004-7 and CIP-011-3 standards. The approved revisions modified the CIP requirements for protecting BCSI to provide a path to modern third-party data storage and analysis systems, including cloud technology.
The standard is typically used in product testing and certification for storage battery evaluation in North America. 2) UL/CAN 9540 – Standard for Energy Storage Systems and Equipment. This bi-national standard applies broad requirements for all types of ESS, including stationary ESS connected to the power grid.
of energy storage systems to meet our energy, economic, and environmental challenges. The June 2014 edition is intended to further the deployment of energy storage systems. As a protocol or pre-standard, the ability to determine system performance as desired by energy systems consumers and driven by energy systems producers is a reality.
DOE is simplifying the environmental review process for certain energy storage systems such as battery systems, transmission line upgrades, and solar photovoltaic systems. DOE recognizes that upgrading and rebuilding transmission lines can extend their useful life, reduce the need for new power lines, and update the

November 14, 2016. Buildings. Building Energy Code Compliance. After previously discussing what building codes are, how they are developed, and how they are adopted, we now explore the final, and perhaps most important, stage of the building energy code cycle: compliance. Compliance is where "the rubber meets the road" for energy codes.
Objectives: Review recent changes and emerging themes in the model codes. Discuss challenges associated with performance-based codes—and potential solutions. Develop a preliminary understanding of how energy codes can address new. technologies enabling grid-interactive efficient buildings (GEB)
The goal of the Codes and Standards (C/S) task in support of the Energy Storage Safety Roadmap and Energy Storage Safety Collaborative is to apply research and development to support efforts that are focused on ensuring that codes and standards are available to enable the safe implementation of energy storage systems in a comprehensive, non
In recent years, installation codes and standards have been updated to address modern energy storage applications which often use new ESS technologies.
