UL 1973: Safety Standard for Batteries for Use in Stationary and Motive Auxiliary Power Applications
Free for IESA Members.
Welcome to the UL 1973: Safety Standard for Batteries for Use in Stationary and Motive Auxiliary Power Application Course
Course Overview
The transportation and energy ecosystems have undergone a dynamic transition globally with a paradigm shift from lead-acid to lithium-ion batteries. This shift to batteries with high capacity demands effective Energy Storage Systems.
Battery Energy Storage Systems help creates better efficiency, increased stability, and capacity for the grid by saving energy for later use. As we scale up the production and usage of energy storage systems, it is critical to establish, understand and follow standards and safety precautions to avoid future predicaments.
