This publication captures learning and experience from battery storage construction projects, with special emphasis on ensuring the safety of such projects to people and environment.

Based on industry interviews and available literature, this publication covers a large range of issues that have caused, or can potentially cause, issues during battery storage projects during design, construction, commissioning, or maintenance, including site selection, using containerised solutions, construction, maintenance, and decommissioning. It shares experience in order help others to avoid some of the pitfalls that have affected previous projects, helping to avoid safety issues and project delays.

This publication should be read in conjunction with other publications in this series, published by the EI (Battery storage guidance note 1: Battery storage planning and Battery storage guidance note 2: Battery energy storage system fire planning and response).
