As battery energy storage system deployment continues across the country, updated national fire codes and safety standards reflect an evolution in the safe operation of BESS facilities. In the lead-up to ACP’s RECHARGE Conference, learn from industry experts about best practices for operating BESS facilities before and during commercial operations, including how to engage with the facility’s host community to ensure effective communications lead to safe responses for prospective incidents.
During this PowerCast, speakers will answer the following questions:
- How is operating a BESS site different than a wind or solar generation site?
- What can/should operators do before a facility begins commercial operations to ensure early success?
- What are the best practices to ensure facility operations maintain a safety-first mentality?
- How should operators build relationships with local officials and the community to communicate safety best practices and ensure potential incidents can be addressed with minimal community disruption?
