Energy Storage Safety Products Database - Submission Form
The following form is used to submit new entires to the EPRI Energy Storage Safety Product Database. This resource is an internal database provided to funding participants in EPRI energy storage safety research. This research supports the safe deployment of ESS projects. For additional information, see the Battery Storage Fire Safety Roadmap that is linked at the bottom of this page. For multiple product entries, use additional submissions.
For any questions about this form or other EPRI energy storage safety research, please contact our Storage Safety email.
All entries will be reviewed before being considered for inclusion in the database and may be edited for clarity or content.
