1 · July 1, 2024. UL 9540B addresses fire service organizations'' need for a test method tailored to battery energy storage systems designed for residential use. UL Solutions recently announced a new testing protocol that addresses fire service organizations'' demand for enhanced evaluations of battery energy storage systems for residential use.

One way of ensuring continuous and sufficient access to electricity is to store energy when it is in surplus and feed it into the grid when there is an extra need for electricity. EES systems maximize energy generation from intermittent renewable energy sources. maintain power quality, frequency and voltage in times of high demand for electricity.

Introduce internal cell failures in cells during assembly via internal contamination, separator defect, or internal heaters. Apply external stress such as heating, indentation, nail penetration, short circuit, or overcharge. The test lab has to find a way to drive the cell into failure under the current standard – whether or not thermal
