Breakout C:
Safety Considerations for Li-ion Batteries in Data Center UPS Energy Storage Systems
Tuesday, October 25, 2022, 3:30 PM – 4:30 PM
Fire safety experts experienced with NFPA standards and fire protection solutions will discuss Li-ion Energy Storage Systems (ESS) and UPS deployments in Data Center environments. The presentation will provide an overview of risks, challenges, design approaches, technologies available, code requirements, and issues for various stakeholders to consider for deployments. Speakers include a senior engineer from a fire protection engineering firm and a senior product manager from a fire safety equipment manufacturer. Participants will learn how to consider fire safety solution options and plan for evaluating and implementing Li-ion battery solutions in Data Center environments today and going forward as new data center needs, technologies, and solutions evolve.
