Even though few incidents with domestic battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are known in the public domain, the use of large batteries in the domestic environment represents a safety hazard.
Appendix 1 includes a summary of applicable international standards for domestic battery energy storage systems (BESSs). When a standard exists as a British standard (BS) based on a European (EN or HD) standard, the BS version is referenced. The standards are divided into the following categories: Safety standards for electrical installations.
The application of batteries for domestic energy storage is not only an attractive 'clean' option to grid supplied electrical energy, but is on the verge of offering economic advantages to consumers, through maximising the use of renewable generation or by 3rd parties using the battery to provide grid services.
As the industry for battery energy storage systems (BESS) has grown, a broad range of H&S related standards have been developed. There are national and international standards, those adopted by the British Standards Institution (BSI) or published by International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), CENELEC, ISO, etc.
To cover specific lithium-ion battery risks for electric energy storage systems, IEC has recently been published IEC 63056 (see Table A 13).
