AI Customer ServiceOne of the most important choices you can make for limiting fire and explosion damage from battery energy storage systems is which specialized hazard detection system you install. There are a variety of detection options that can detect the conditions that precede thermal runaway — from temperature increases to off-gasses, smoke, or flames.
Lithium-ion battery energy storage systems have been known to pose the greatest fire risk for facilities. Here’s a little more information as to why, as well as to how you can protect your facility and people against them. What Fire Hazard Is Associated with Lithium Battery Energy Storage Systems?
Owners of energy storage need to be sure that they can deploy systems safely. Over a recent 18-month period ending in early 2020, over two dozen large-scale battery energy storage sites around the world had experienced failures that resulted in destructive fires. In total, more than 180 MWh were involved in the fires.
In 2019, EPRI began the Battery Energy Storage Fire Prevention and Mitigation – Phase I research project, convened a group of experts, and conducted a series of energy storage site surveys and industry workshops to identify critical research and development (R&D) needs regarding battery safety.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) play a critical role in the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy by helping meet the growing demand for reliable, yet decentralized power on a grid-scale.
Battery Energy Storage Systems must be carefully managed to prevent significant risk from fire—lithium-ion batteries at energy storage systems have distinct safety concerns that may present a serious fire hazard unless proactively addressed with holistic fire detection, prevention and suppression solutions.
