On 27 May 2025, over 200 participants attended the webinar on the "EASE Guidelines on Safety Best Practices for Battery Energy Storage Systems". The Guidelines are designed to support the safe deployment of outdoor, utility-scale lithium-ion (Li-ion) BESS across Europe.
In 2024, Europe presented 35 GW of cumulative installed capacity of electrochemical storage, reflecting the rapid expansion of BESS and their crucial role in the global energy transition. Ensuring these systems meet the highest safety standards in design, development, installation, and maintenance is essential to support this growth.
Covers an energy storage system (ESS) that is intended to receive and store energy in some form so that the ESS can provide electrical energy to loads or to the local/area electric power system (EPS) when needed. Electrochemical, chemical, mechanical, and thermal ESS are covered by this Standard.
These safety checklists provides guidance how to best work on utility-scale lithium-ion Battery Energy Storage Systems, they outlines essential strategies to protect workers and guide safe deployment of BESS installations at site level.
