According to the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG Code), BESS is classified as Class 9 hazardous goods, with the United Nations number UN3536. The maritime transportation of BESS primarily involves the following risks: Lithium battery safety risks. In the past few months, Gard has received several queries on the safe carriage of battery energy storage systems (BESS) on ships. In this insight, we highlight some of the key risks, regulatory requirements, and recommendations for shipping such cargo. BESS refers to a mobile power supply device with lithium battery packs, lithium-ion battery packs, or lithium-metal battery packs installed and secured. . This research evaluated the hazards of commercially available energy storage system (ESS) types for transportation by the marine mode in enclosed vessel spaces according to the current International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code.
