The Taiwan Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection (BSMI) notified WTO recently regarding Proposal for Legal Inspection Requirements for Stationary Lithium Battery Storage Appliances. To achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, it is expected that renewable energy power generation equipment and energy storage systems will gradually enter households. Due to the risks associated with thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries used in energy storage systems, the BSMI proposes to add stationary lithium battery storage appliances into the mandatory inspection scope. 2 alternative conformity assessment procedures are made available for the choice of applicants – Registration of Product Certification (RPC) or Type-Approved Batch Inspection (TABI). The proposed date of entry into force is July 1, 2025.
