Scope: This document specifies the overview, current situation investigation and evaluation, impact prediction and evaluation, protection measures, management and monitoring plan and evaluation conclusions of electrochemical energy storage power stations. This document is applicable to the environmental impact assessment of electrochemical energy storage power stations using lithium-ion batteries, flow batteries, lead-acid (carbon) batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and water electrolysis hydrogen/fuel cells as energy storage carriers.

Introduction

1. Background of Standard Formulation

With the rapid development of renewable energy and the maturity of energy storage technology, electrochemical energy storage stations play an increasingly important role in the power system. However, these power stations may have multiple impacts on the environment, including the atmosphere, water, soil and ecology.

2	Power Plant Overview
3	Current Situation Investigation and Evaluation
4	Impact Prediction and Evaluation
5	Protection Measures
6	Management and Monitoring Plan
7	Evaluation Conclusion

3.1 Key points of current situation investigation and evaluation

Atmospheric environment: including the emission of existing pollution sources and air quality.
Water environment: the current status of surface water and groundwater quality and their protection targets.
Soil environment: the degree of salinization, acidification, alkalinization and pollution.

4. Analysis of technological evolution

From early lead-acid batteries to today's lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries, electrochemical energy storage technology has continued to advance. The various battery types mentioned in the standard reflect the diversified development trend of the industry, and also put forward higher requirements for environmental impact assessment.

5. Implementation Suggestions

During the construction phase, effective measures should be taken to control dust and mechanical noise.
During operation, it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring and management of battery leakage.
After the service period expires, the used batteries should be properly disposed of to prevent the spread of pollutants.
