Failure is inevitable, especially when it comes to battery storage and energy storage systems. So how do we know that when something ultimately crashes on us that it won’t be catastrophic? Functional safety is put into place when creating a product, so that it will be known how a system will fail before it even happens – avoiding harm to the user or its surroundings.
In this webinar you will learn about:
- Approaches to planning and implementing functional safety systems to help mitigate random faults and avoid systematic flaws
- How renewable energy equipment like DER devices are relied upon for an ever-increasing list of protection and performance functions for the entire PV and microgrid system
- Functional safety concerns in large and small scale energy storage systems
- The industry standards in renewable energy that require functional safety testing
