The goal was to make sure these projects are safe and follow the necessary guidelines to protect people and property. The consultant study found several important requirements that BESS projects need to follow to meet fire safety standards. Here are the main takeaways:
Install Fire Suppression Systems: Each BESS project must include a proper fire suppression system to put out fires if they occur. Keep Safe Distances: BESS projects must be placed at a safe distance from nearby property lines—either 50 feet or 20 feet, depending on the specifics of the project.
If you have any questions or concerns about these BESS and microgrid projects, please contact SDG&E's toll-free project number at 1-844-210-5821.
