Recently, Yiwei Lithium Energy subsidiary Hubei Yiwei Power Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Yiwei Power") LF280K energy storage battery obtained the UL9540A test report issued by Sukepower (China) Investment Co., Ltd.
It is understood that the UL 9540A test, proposed by UL, is a test method to evaluate the large-scale thermal runaway fire spread of the battery energy storage system. At present, the UL9540A test report is a key third-party report required by North American energy storage project developers or owners when submitting the relevant project approval process. The local regulatory and law enforcement department (AHJ) will strictly review the UL9540A report in accordance with the NFPA855 fixed Energy Storage installation Code issued by the American Fire Protection Association and relevant regulations to assess whether the fire risk of the energy storage project is controllable. And formulate relevant fire emergency plans.
In addition, UL 9540A listing requirements for energy storage system are also put forward by American Electrical Law (Section 706), American Housing Code (Section R327) and American International Fire Protection Code (Energy Storage Section).
Feng Hao, vice president of UL and managing director of mainland China and Hong Kong, said that this time Yiwei Power passed the UL9540A test audit and obtained the certification certificate, which can help Yiwei energy storage battery, attract high quality customers and better enter the North American energy storage market. At the same time, on the basis of the cooperation between UL9540A and financing assessment, the two sides are expected to enter a new stage of comprehensive strategic cooperation and contribute to the rapid expansion of Yiwei Power's global business.
In view of the fact that UL9540A has become a challenging international safety testing standard recognized overseas, the products of domestic enterprises must pass the test if they want to enter the international market. Up to now, the energy storage products of only a few battery companies in China, such as Ningde era, Yiwei Lithium Energy, BYD and so on, have passed the UL 9540A related test audit. Of course, the energy storage battery products of the above-mentioned enterprises have passed the international safety test, which also provides a reference for other domestic enterprises to open the international market.
Yiwei Li Neng said that as Yiwei Power to expand overseas markets, especially the North American grid-level application market, the energy storage battery LF280K products passed the UL9540A test audit and obtained the certification certificate, which can effectively reduce the risk of customers in the license examination and approval of AHJ regulatory authorities throughout the United States, thus helping Yiwei Power to better develop the international energy storage market, and play a positive role in expanding the international influence of products and expanding business in overseas markets.
It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the energy storage products obtained UL 9540A test approval, recently, Yiwei LiNeng also passed the European Association of Automobile Manufacturers' highest level of information security TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) assessment (AL3), indicating that Yiwei LiNeng has the ability to meet the information security requirements of European car companies, and laid a solid foundation for the company's sound development in the high-end automotive field.
TISAX, whose full name is "(Automotive) trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (Mechanism)", was founded by (VDA), German Automobile Industry Federation, and (ENX), European Automobile Industry Safety data Exchange Association, and has been adopted by many well-known automobile manufacturers, such as BMW and Daimler, as one of the important access conditions for their supplier selection.
TISAX provides a unified and binding standard for the information security assessment of the automobile industry, and the evaluation results are recognized by other participants, so as to realize the mutual trust of safety among enterprises in the automobile industry.
At present, with the development and large-scale application of intelligent network technology, information security has become one of the key factors for success in the automotive field. Being able to successfully pass the TISAX assessment means that the information security level of Yiwei LiNeng has been recognized by the European automotive industry, and an information security management system in line with Europe has been established, which will help the company to develop steadily in the field of high-end automobiles.
