POWR2’s mobile BESS meets new regulatory requirements for temporary power

POWR2 has achieved a significant milestone as the first battery energy storage system (BESS) manufacturer in its size category to be certified to UL and CSA standards by TÜV for use in the U.S. and Canada. This achievement will allow POWR2 to meet regulatory requirements in sensitive sites and tightly controlled markets for temporary power. 

POWR2's POWRBANK XPRO Plus mobile BESS meets the following standards: UL 9540, UL 9540A, UL 1741, NFPA 855, NFPA 70, and CSA. This certification confirms compliance with key electrical and energy storage standards recognized throughout North America. 

Mobile BESS certified to UL standards: Cleared for use in cities, airports, and critical infrastructure 

With this certification, POWR2 opens the door to high-compliance temporary power markets, including highly regulated cities and regions such as New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago, and Canada. This certification also unlocks new opportunities in sensitive industries including healthcare, airport operations, public infrastructure, disaster response, urban construction, film and TV shoots, and events and festivals. 

POWR2's certification to UL standards reinforces its presence in the mobile energy storage space, with a proven track record of building scalable, efficient systems that deliver real-world results where temporary power is needed. 

Certification to UL and CSA standards currently applies to the POWRBANK XPRO Plus 60Hz, a 100kVA mobile battery energy storage system with 108kWh of energy storage capacity. Additional POWR2 models are expected to receive certification in the near future.

"This is a turning point for mobile energy storage," said Mark MacManus, CEO, POWR2. "We've proven that it's possible to deliver mobile BESS that meets the strictest requirements. It's a major step forward, not just for POWR2, but for how the industry adopts energy storage in real-world, high-demand applications."
