Some of the changes coming in 2022:

• A comprehensive revision of Section 14, Storage Batteries to recognize new battery technologies, applications, and their hazards
• A new section covering new and emerging electric generation station technologies focusing on photovoltaic (PV) generating stations
• Consolidation of antenna rules into a single location to clarify the required antenna rules and to treat antennas as equipment consistently throughout the code
• Clearance rules for guys and guy anchors
