N.Y. state’s 2025 fire code, which went into effect at the beginning of 2026, aligns with and even exceeds the national standard for battery energy storage safety, or NFPA 855.

This new code ensures, for example, that battery management system data is monitored 24/7 and communicates any critical failures immediately.

It is codes and practices like this that ensure battery fires in N.Y. state are preventable, addressing problems before they can start. More on how N.Y. is leading safety for energy storage systems in the U.S.!

This weekend at Broome County Regional Farmers!!!

🔋 Got a junk drawer full of dead batteries? Bring them with you Saturday.

SUNY Broome Workforce & Community Partnerships is hosting a free battery drive at the Market on Saturday, August 22, from 9am to 1pm. Look for their table and drop off any used household batteries — AA, AAA, 9-volt, C/D, button cell, rechargeable, and lithium-ion from phones, laptops, and power tools.

Batteries shouldn't go in the trash, and this is an easy way to get rid of them while you shop.

Broome County Regional Farmers Market, 840 Front St, Binghamton.

Presented by SUNY Broome Workforce & Community Partnerships and New Energy New York.
