UL 9540 demonstrates comprehensive safety of
company’s sustainable long-duration energy storage systems
ESS Tech Inc. (“ESS”) (NYSE:GWH), a leading manufacturer of
flexible, sustainable and responsible long-duration energy storage
systems for commercial and utility-scale applications, today
announced that its Energy Warehouse products have been certified to
the UL 9540 standard by ETL. UL 9540 is a comprehensive safety
standard for grid-connected energy storage systems which affirms
the safety of the battery system and its environmental performance.
The standard covers stationary energy storage systems for both
outdoor and indoor installations.
This comprehensive certification enables customers to expedite
permitting and approval processes for new energy storage projects
which incorporate ESS systems and further demonstrates the
company’s commitment to deploying resilient and sustainable
long-duration energy storage systems that are safe for workers,
communities and the environment. ETL certification to UL 9540
follows the ETL certification of ESS iron flow battery modules to
the UL 1973 standard in March, 2023 and initial UL certification to
the UL 9540A standard in 2022.
Recent use cases illustrate the advantages of ESS’ safe and
sustainable energy storage technology. In April, ESS announced a
partnership with Coldwell Solar to deliver Energy Warehouse systems
to microgrid projects which will power California wineries in
regions at risk of wildfire. This follows the January announcement
of ESS’ selection by Amsterdam Airport Schiphol to provide a
battery system that will enable electrification of airside ground
operations. The safety profile of ESS technology was a key factor
in both selections.
In addition, ESS was selected by the Sacramento Municipal
Utility District (SMUD) to deliver up to 2 GWh of energy storage
systems in support of the utility’s 2030 Clean Energy Vision. To
build a resilient, decarbonized energy system, ESS technology will
be deployed across SMUD’s grid. The safety and flexibility of ESS
technology make it ideally suited for siting in densely populated
areas where improved grid resilience is needed and safety is a top
priority.
ESS iron flow technology provides cost-effective long-duration
energy storage and is ideal for applications that require up to
twelve hours of flexible energy capacity. ESS systems are
well-suited for multiple use cases including utility-scale
renewable energy installations, remote solar + storage microgrids,
solar load-shifting and peak shaving, and other ancillary grid
services. ESS technology is safe, sustainable and has a 25-year
design life with unlimited cycling and without capacity fade.
