6 FAQs about [Danish energy storage battery standards]

Can energy storage units be installed in the Danish power system?

Elsystemansvar A/S (subsidiary of Energinet) has asked Ea Energy Analyses to analyse the benefits and main drivers for the installation of storage units in the Danish power system. This will supplement the technology aspects in the recent Technology Catalogue on Energy Storage (DEA and Energinet, 2019).

Do battery energy storage systems provide primary control reserves in Germany?

IEEE. Zeh, A., Muller, M., Naumann, M., & Hesse, H. (2016). Fundamentals of using battery energy storage systems to provide primary control reserves in Germany. Batteries. Table 9 carries the requirements and the remuneration for units participating in the Danish ancillary services markets.

Can a hydrogen-based energy storage system be used in Denmark?

Bulk physical storage of renewable energy produced gases can act as a longer-term storage solution (hours, days, weeks, months) to help maintain flexibility in a fossil-free energy grid (The Danish Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells). Without the hydrogen scenario, the potential for hydrogen-based energy storage in Denmark will be limited.

Does Denmark have a standard for lithium-ion battery fire and explosion testing?

Denmark also lacks specific protocols for Lithium-ion battery fire and explosion testing, e.g., UL 9540A, which is a benchmark test recommended in many other countries. Danish guidelines may furthermore provide more clarification on when and which suppression systems should be installed, depending on BESS design parameters.

What are the safety requirements for stationary batteries?

Article 12 describes requirements for technical documentation that covers the safety requirements for stationary batteries under normal use. This includes tests for safety parameters as described in Annex V - Safety parameters and Annex VII - Parameters for determining the state of health and expected lifetime of batteries.

How is Energinet regulated in Denmark?

In Denmark, Energinet ensures the international obligation to have at least one top-down (i.e. through interconnectors) and one bottom-up (i.e. a unit) restoration system per market area. The market is regulated through bilateral agreements, which shall encompass the requirements in Table 4.
