Risk & Asset Management for Battery Energy Storage Systems

Webinar Details

From planning and installation to operation and end-of-life, managing a battery energy storage system (BESS) requires careful consideration of risks and best practices. This webinar will explore key risks and mitigation strategies, including system complexity, future augmentation, documentation, training, and maintenance best practices. Additionally, it will address failure scenarios, warranty limitations, and decommissioning strategies to support long-term reliability, safety, and efficiency throughout the entire lifecycle.  

Key Takeaways:

• Effective Planning: Why proper zoning, permitting, and stakeholder engagement are essential during early BESS stages to avoid delays and unforeseen challenges.  
• Risk Reduction: How to avoid delays and system compatibility issues with desired goals/purpose and approach unforeseen challenges.  
• Overall System Understanding: How having a clear grasp of BESS components, operations, and monitoring can help optimize performance and prevent failures. 
• Proactive Maintenance & Monitoring: How regular maintenance, alarm management, and proper documentation help minimize operational risks and extend system lifespan.  
• Augmentation & Overbuild Strategies: How planning for system degradation and future expansion supports compatibility and cost-effective performance improvements.  
• End-of-Life Considerations: How complex decommissioning, recycling, and warranty limitations can be addressed to mitigate financial and environmental impacts.  

Who Should Attend

• The legal community  
• Product developers, integrators, brand managers, and manufacturers of BESS 
• Engineers, chemists, and computer scientists tasked with planning, installing and monitoring BESS 
• Utilities that use or plan to use, own, operate, or maintain BESS
