4 FAQs about Energy storage power supply size standard

Are energy storage systems compliant?

Energy storage systems continue to be a rapidly evolving industry. Thus, the key to safe and up-to-date compliance requirements involves the adoption and application of codes and standards in addition to the development or writing of codes and standards.

What is a battery energy storage system (BESS) & an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)?

Figure 1: A simplified project single line showing both a battery energy storage system (BESS) and an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The UPS only feeds critical loads, never losing power.

What are the NFPA requirements for emergency and standby power systems?

International Building Code (IBC): Following IBC 2024 Chapter 27 Section 2702.1.3, emergency or standby power systems must be installed following the guidelines outlined in the International Fire Code IFC), NFPA 70: National Electrical Code (NEC) and NFPA 111: Standard on Stored Electrical Energy Emergency and Standby Power Systems.

How are energy storage systems regulated?

In some contexts, for energy storage systems, compliance regulations take the form of a state adopting a code, which then references and requires testing and listing or adherence to a standard. Some cities, counties, and special administrative districts (e.g., school or sewer districts) also adopt locally amended codes for their environments.
