For reference material, IEEE Std. 80, “Guide for Safety in Substation Grounding,” is generally recognized as one of the most authoritative guides available. It is recommended for any person concerned with the design of substation grounding systems.
Buildup could occur that would compromise electrical insulation or interfere with cooling. Appropriate prevention measures should be included in the design of a substation expected to be exposed to such contamination. Substations interface with roadways, area drainage, communications systems, and electric power lines.
IEEE Std. 980, “IEEE Guide for Containment and Control of Oil Spills in Substations.” IEEE Std. 1119, “IEEE Guide for Fence Safety Clearances.” IEEE Std. 1127, “IEEE Guide for the Design, Construction, and Operation of Safe and Reliable Substations for Community Acceptance and Environmental Compatibility.”
Substations for which mobile equipment has been designated should have provisions for installation of the equipment. The provisions can simply be terminals on permanent substation equipment or buses for connecting the mobile equipment.
The global commercial and industrial solar energy storage battery market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years. Large-scale battery storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial solar installations worldwide. North America leads with a 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability goals and federal investment tax credits that reduce total system costs by 30-35%. Europe follows with a 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at a 50% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets are adopting commercial storage for peak shaving and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 3-6 years. Modern industrial installations now feature integrated systems with 50kWh to multi-megawatt capacity at costs below $500/kWh for complete energy solutions.
