In May, Flagship Facility Services is participating in National Electrical Safety Month, an annual event organized by the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI) to raise awareness about electrical safety in homes, schools, and workplaces. This year, ESFI is focusing on how new technologies like photovoltaics, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems can provide energy resilience to homes and businesses. Energy storage systems (ESSs) store off-peak energy from the grid to reduce energy costs and provide backup power during natural disasters or power outages. However, ESSs can present safety risks if not properly installed or maintained, potentially causing fires, explosions, or electrical shock. Flagship prioritizes safety in all of its operations, including conducting safety assessments, investigating incidents, and providing employee training.
