Energy Storage Resource Toolkits
Public Hearing Toolkit
The Public Hearing Toolkit is designed to help developers communicate the benefits, safety and reliability track record, and economic value of energy storage projects during community events, permitting hearings, and public meetings. These materials provide accessible explanations of how energy storage works, responses to common questions, and region-specific benefits.
AHJ Toolkit
The AHJ Toolkit provides local officials and permitting authorities with resources to evaluate and permit energy storage projects. It includes materials explaining how energy storage works, relevant safety codes and standards, and a model ordinance template built off the latest and most rigorous safety standards, designed to help communities create clear and consistent permitting pathways.
Firefighter Toolkit
The Firefighter Toolkit equips project developers and fire officials with the resources designed to support local fire departments and first responders during the planning, permitting, and operational phases of battery energy storage system (BESS) projects. These materials help explain how modern energy storage systems are designed for safety, outline relevant safety standards such as NFPA 855, and provide practical guidance for responding to safety incidents.
