2021 IRC Section R328.2 states: “Energy storage systems (ESS) shall be listed and labeled in accordance with UL 9540.” UL 9540-16 is the product safety standard for Energy Storage Systems and Equipment referenced in Chapter 44 of the 2021 IRC. The basic requirement for ESS marking is to be “labeled in accordance with UL 9540.”
The diagram shows that each ESS unit can have a maximum rating of 20 kWh, and if you’re going to install two units, let’s say outside on your wall, you need to have the appropriate spacing between those units and three-feet separation from doors and windows per NFPA 855 15.6.1.
Specifically, we’re focused on spacing requirements and limitations for energy storage systems (ESS). NFPA 855 sets the rules in residential settings for each energy storage unit—how many kWh you can have per unit and the spacing requirements between those units.
Individual ESS units shall have a maximum stored energy of 20 kWh per NFPA Section 15.7. NFPA 855 clearly tells us each unit can be up to 20 kWh, but how much overall storage can you put in your installation? That depends on where you put it and is defined in Section 15.7.1 of NFPA 855.
Systems in these locations are also limited to 40 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of storage capacity. In all other locations noted above, the size limit is 80 kWh. On the exterior walls of the home, it’s important to note that systems cannot go within 3 feet of doors or windows leading directly into the home.
