Renewable energy produced by nature, stored by users
Enhanced battery technology is essential to fully realize the benefits of decarbonized power generation and a decentralized energy grid.
Distributed energy resources (DERs) offer significant potential to harness green power, overcome interruptions in power generation via battery energy storage systems (BESS) and realize the efficiency of direct current (DC) in more environments.
We understand the pace of regulatory and technical changes in the energy storage industry can be challenging. Our comprehensive offerings help stakeholders tackle safety, interoperability and integration challenges with confidence.
Overcome interoperability issues
BESS require coordination among various stakeholders to optimize efficiency and mitigate risk. That starts with understanding the scope of risk in an evolving technical market.
Access new markets for energy storage
Battery energy storage technology is changing rapidly — and so is the regulatory environment. We can help you understand emerging and evolving regulations and offer testing services so you can demonstrate compliance in your target markets.
Improve project design and performance
Use rich data and simulations to guide the strategic design and operation of utility-scale storage and renewable power generation projects.
Services, software and guidance for safer energy storage
UL 9540A Test Method for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
We offer testing to evaluate how systems behave when conditions exceed established safety limits according to UL 9540A, the Standard for Test Method for Evaluating Thermal Runaway Fire Propagation in Battery Energy Storage Systems.
Energy storage system testing and certification
Large battery systems are critical to energy infrastructure. We work closely with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and system integrators to help mitigate safety issues through safety, performance and reliability testing according to UL 9540, the Standard for Energy Storage Systems and Equipment.
