Course Overview

Regulators and insurers increasingly want documented evidence of how battery energy storage design is controlled. The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in storage design; it has added to it. The course covers this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make battery energy storage design hard in practice. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this part of energy and hydrocarbon operations, in large organisations and small ones alike. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about storage design under scrutiny. Buying a tool rarely fixes battery energy storage design; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better storage design is rarely technical. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the wider energy and hydrocarbon operations agenda rather than a set of notes.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Specify the instrumentation and data needed to monitor battery energy storage design reliably.

02

Set the minimum documentation for storage design that is genuinely necessary, and stop there.

03

Set a realistic target state for battery energy storage design and a defensible route to it.

04

Identify the failure points in storage design most likely to cause loss, and control them first.

05

Prepare the technical case for capital investment in battery energy storage design.

06

Model the economics of storage design under a realistic range of price scenarios.

07

Assess battery energy storage design against the emissions and efficiency targets the organisation has committed to.

Course Modules

01

Battery energy storage design: process safety, permits and isolation

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1What the last incident involving battery energy storage design should have taught us

  • Confirm contractor competence records for anyone working on battery energy storage design.
  • Review the instrumentation on storage design for coverage gaps.
  • Verify six months later that changes to battery energy storage design have held.
  • Verify isolation points for storage design are proven and documented.

Session 2Escalation and decision rights in storage design

  • Define the safe operating envelope for battery energy storage design and how deviations are detected.
  • Arrange the handover of storage design so capability survives staff changes.
  • Establish what evidence demonstrates battery energy storage design is under control.
  • Check that management of change is applied to every modification of storage design.
02

Storage design: environmental obligation and emissions

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Reading condition data on storage design before failure, not after

  • Check that the permit regime covering battery energy storage design matches the actual hazard.
  • Set out the decisions in storage design that require sign-off and by whom.
  • Record the technical rationale for the chosen approach to battery energy storage design.
  • Set the review interval for storage design and who attends.

Session 2Building the investment case for storage design that finance will accept

  • Identify the failure modes of battery energy storage design with the highest consequence.
  • Establish the alarm philosophy applying to storage design and remove nuisance alarms.
  • Record what was learned when battery energy storage design did not go as planned.
  • Model the economics of storage design at low, base and high price cases.
03

Storage design: contracts, contractors and service delivery

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Building lasting competence in storage design

  • Compare the cost of battery energy storage design with the cost of its absence.
  • Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for storage design.
  • Plan the sequence in which improvements to battery energy storage design will be introduced.
  • Set the trigger for a life-extension versus replacement study on storage design.

Session 2Deciding between life extension and replacement for battery energy storage design

  • Test the procedure for battery energy storage design against a realistic scenario.
  • Verify emergency response arrangements cover the scenarios storage design can create.
  • Rank the weaknesses in battery energy storage design by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.
  • Agree what will be standardised in storage design and what will not.
04

Storage design: incidents, lessons and continual improvement

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1The decisions in storage design that cannot be delegated

  • Agree the smallest change to battery energy storage design that would be visibly useful.
  • Prepare the response for the most likely failure in storage design.
  • Confirm handover documentation for battery energy storage design is complete and current.
  • Review incident and near-miss history involving storage design.

Session 2What the instrumentation on storage design is and is not telling you

  • Confirm that lessons from battery energy storage design are shared beyond the team that learned them.
  • Agree the indicators that will show whether storage design is improving.
  • Remove steps in battery energy storage design that add effort without adding assurance.
  • Assess the emissions and discharge attributable to storage design.
