The goal of the DOE OE Energy Storage System Safety Roadmap is to foster confidence in the safety and reliability of energy storage systems. There are three interrelated objectives to support the realization of that goal: research, codes and standards(C/S)and communication/coordination. The objective focused on C/S is "To apply research and development to support efforts that refocused on ensuring that codes and standards are available to enable the safe implementation of energy storage systems in a comprehensive, non-discriminatory and science-based manner." The following activities support that objective and realization of the goal: (a.) Review and assess C/S which affect the design, installation, and operation of energy storage systems(ESS). (b.) Identify gaps in knowledge that require research and analysis that can serve as a basis for criteria in those C/S. (c.) Identify areas in C/S that are potentially in need of revision or enhancement and can benefit from activities conducted under research and development. (d.) Develop input for new or revisions to existing C/S through individual stakeholders, facilitated task forces, or through laboratory staff supporting these efforts. The purpose of this Codes and Standards Update is to support the above activities by providing information on efforts being conducted by U.S. standards developing organizations(SDOs)and other entities that are focused on ESS safety. The information is organized relative to the scope of each document in relation to ESS from the "macro to the micro"(e.g., from overarching covering considerable scope ,to installation specific, to ESS and then ESS components). Note that more macro documents are also likely to adopt by reference more micro documents.
