The UL 9540A test standard evaluates thermal runaway and propagation in energy storage systems123. It determines whether fire or thermal runaway conditions in a single battery module or cabinet will propagate outside of the cabinet to adjacent cabinets or walls3. The data from this testing is used to design fire and explosion protection systems for safe siting and installation of energy storage systems1.

UL can test your large energy storage systems (ESS) based on UL 9540 and provide ESS certification to help identify the safety and performance of your system. You can leverage our expertise with safety testing and
Performance testing is a critical component of safe and reliable deployment of energy storage systems on the electric power grid. Specific performance tests can be applied to individual battery cells or to integrated energy storage systems.
The goal of the stored energy test is to calculate how much energy can be supplied discharging, how much energy must be supplied recharging, and how efficient this cycle is. The test procedure applied to the DUT is as follows: Specify charge power Pcha and discharge power Pdis Preconditioning (only performed before testing starts):
We provide a range of energy storage testing and certification services. These services benefit end users, such as electrical utility companies and commercial businesses, producers of energy storage systems, and supply chain companies that provide components and systems, such as inverters, solar panels, and batteries, to producers.
Capacity testing is performed to understand how much charge / energy a battery can store and how efficient it is. In energy storage applications, it is often just as important how much energy a battery can absorb, hence we measure both charge and discharge capacities.
Energy storage systems are reliable and efficient, and they can be tailored to custom solutions for a company’s specific needs. Benefits of energy storage system testing and certification: We have extensive testing and certification experience.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are expected to be an integral component of future electric grid solutions. Testing is needed to verify that new BESS products comply with grid standards while delivering the performance expected for utility applications.
We are deeply committed to excellence in all our endeavors.
Since we maintain control over our products, our customers can be assured of nothing but the best quality at all times.
