FAQs about Fire protection requirements and standards for wind and solar hybrid solar container communication stations
What are the fire protection standards for offshore wind energy?
The fire protection standards used for the offshore wind energy industry include documents from the following sources: NFPA, DNV, CFR, FM, Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and API. In addition, other international sources may be applicable depending on the wind energy system: VdS Schadenverhütung GMbH (VdS) and EN54.
Are NFPA documents required for offshore wind energy systems?
For US wind energy systems, the available NFPA documents provide the industry recognized requirements to maintain the installed fire protection system in operable condition. However, the NFPA documents serve only as baseline requirements and should be modified to fit the need of the offshore wind energy asset.
What are the requirements for passive fire protection systems for offshore substations?
Proper equipment spacing, equipment location, and separation of redundant systems should be considered. If provided, proper containment sizing and appropriate drainage should be considered. Passive fire protection systems for offshore substations should follow the guidelines set forth in DNV-ST-0145, NFPA 850, and IEEE 979.
What is the fire protection philosophy for wind energy systems?
The fire protection philosophy for wind energy systems requires a heavy focus on fire prevention, automatic fire suppression, and PFP, with minimized reliance on active exterior firefighting operations. A fire protection approach requires automatic suppression and control of small incipient fires rather than fighting a large, fully developed fire.
