To qualify, the battery energy storage system shall be certified to the Energy Commission according to Joint Appendix JA12. Please visit the Solar Equipment List webpage for certification instructions, as well as the list of currently certified systems. . NFPA is keeping pace with the surge in energy storage and solar technology by undertaking initiatives including training, standards development, and research so that various stakeholders can safely embrace renewable energy sources and respond if potential new hazards arise. Technological innovation, as well as new challenges with interoperability and system-level integration, can also. . However, storing and managing energy—especially lithium-ion batteries (LIBs)—presents unique fire and life safety challenges. To mitigate risks, a range of codes and standards guide the design, installation, operation, and testing of energy storage systems. The work of the DG Hub is supported by the U.
