Evolving large-scale fire testing requirements for battery energy storage systems
This webinar aims to educate AHJs, battery ESS manufacturers, system integrators, insurers, and other key stakeholders involved in the industry, by providing valuable insights into the evolving landscape of fire testing for ESS. This session will feature expert perspectives from a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL), CSA Group, which also has experience managing the development of industry standards, and from a leading ESS manufacturer, Wärtsilä Energy Storage & Optimisation. Attendees will learn the drivers behind this shift in testing requirements, explore methodologies used, and gain practical knowledge on how fire test data can be applied to improve the design of ESS systems to align with applicable safety requirements.
