Bringing your energy storage systems (ESS) online just got easier and safer. As global deployment of battery energy storage systems (BESS) accelerates, so do safety expectations. With the 2026 updates to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 855, along with increasing focus on NFPA 68 and NFPA 69, the path to approval is becoming more complex. For manufacturers, system integrators and developers, this often means: • Longer AHJ review cycles • Increased resubmissions • Greater regulatory uncertainty UL Solutions can help. Our ESS Safety Assessments and NFPA compliance services empower you to: • Strengthen safety documentation aligned with NFPA requirements • Identify gaps early and reduce costly rework • Translate complex engineering data into AHJ-ready submissions • Improve the likelihood of faster, smoother approvals From documentation readiness reviews to fire and explosion hazard assessments and system-level evaluations, we provide the technical clarity you need to move projects forward with greater confidence. As ESS technologies scale, aligning safety, compliance and speed to market is critical. We help you bridge the gap between evolving standards and real-world deployment with trusted third-party insights. Learn more: https://s.ul.com/4xS6fKr #BESS #EnergyStorageSystems #Compliance
