Angelo Zandona, a fire and life safety consultant, has launched Keystone Fire Consultants, a specialized firm dedicated to helping developers, contractors, utilities, and facility owners successfully navigate the evolving fire protection and safety requirements of modern energy infrastructure.

Battery Energy Storage Safety

As battery energy storage projects continue to accelerate across North America, stakeholders are placing greater emphasis on fire protection engineering, emergency preparedness, regulatory compliance, and long-term risk management. Keystone Fire Consultants provides specialized technical consulting services, including fire and life safety engineering, Hazard Mitigation Analyses (HMAs), Emergency Response Plans (ERPs), water supply analyses, code compliance, permitting support, and fire protection strategies for battery energy storage systems and other critical infrastructure projects.

Zandona’s mission is to help project teams address safety considerations early, streamline permitting, and deliver facilities that meet both operational objectives and community expectations. Over the past year, Zandona has shared industry insights on several key aspects of battery energy storage development, including hazard mitigation strategies, emergency response planning, water infrastructure considerations, and evolving regulatory requirements.

Alongside the firm’s launch, Zandona introduced a new professional website designed to serve as an educational resource for organizations seeking information on fire protection engineering, battery energy storage safety, infrastructure risk management, and regulatory best practices.
