All energy storage systems have hazards. Some hazards are easily mitigated to reduce risk, and others require more dedicated planning and
PLOYMENT GROWS, SAFETY IS A TOP PRIORITY Energy storage safety incidents are very rare — there have been less than 20 incidents at operating energ. storage facilities in the United States.
These safety standards and performance tests help to ensure that the technologies deployed in energy storage facilities uniformly comply with the highest global safety standards.
