This article advocates the use of predictive maintenance of operational BESS as the next step in safely managing energy storage systems. Predictive maintenance involves monitoring the components of a system for changes in operating parameters that may be indicative of a pending fault.
Guidelines under development include IEEE P2686 “Recommended Practice for Battery Management Systems in Energy Storage Applications” (set for balloting in 2022). This recommended practice includes information on the design, installation, and configuration of battery management systems (BMSs) in stationary applications.
Two of the most notable standards in the United States are Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 9540 (Standard for Energy Storage Systems and Equipment) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 855 (Standard for the Installation of Stationary Energy Storage Systems).
This recognition, coupled with the proliferation of state-level renewable portfolio standards and rapidly declining lithium-ion battery costs, has led to a surge in the deployment of battery energy storage systems (BESS).
A 2019 Energy Storage News report on operations and maintenance noted that the Smarter Network Storage Project, a 6 MW/10 MWh battery system, receives a 6-month check-up to ensure optimal performance (including identifying battery degradation levels, pushing software upgrades, and inspecting the power conversion system).
Today, the only public energy storage database (maintained by the DOE) focuses primarily on installations, technologies, and applications of energy storage. Creating a clearinghouse of fault information and issues is a more complicated request.
