    What does NFPA 855 mean for energy storage systems?

    Specifically, we're focused on spacing requirements and limitations for energy storage systems (ESS). NFPA 855 sets the rules in residential settings for each energy storage unit—how many kWh you can have per unit and the spacing requirements between those units. First, let's start with the language, and then we'll explain what this means.

    How much space do you need for a battery system?

    Spaces about battery systems shall comply with 110.26. Working space shall be measured from the edge of the battery cabinet, racks, or trays. For battery racks, there shall be a minimum clearance of 25 mm (1 in.) between a cell container and any wall or structure on the side not requiring access for maintenance.

    What are the requirements for a battery storage site?

    In order to be suitable for use as a battery storage site, there are various requirements that need to be met. These include factors such as proximity to a substation or other grid connection and sufficient grid capacity in the area. Access and planning policy are also considerations.

    What battery sizes can the container hold?

    The container is designed to hold large D batteries all the way down to small AAA batteries. They come in a set of two and they have plastic dividers built right in. The dividers are spaced differently.
