Energy Storage Systems, Safety Fact Sheet
Growing concerns about the use of fossil fuels and greater demand for a cleaner. more efficient, and more resilient energy grid has led to the use of energy storage systems (ESS), and that use has increased substantially over the past decade. Renewable sources of energy such as solar and wind power are intermittent, so storage becomes a key factor in supplying reliable energy. ESS also help meet energy demands during peak times and can supply backup power during natural
disasters and other emergencies. However, the rise in the number of ESS installations requires the need for a heightened
understanding of the hazards involved and more extensive measures to reduce the risks.
