Customer ServiceExecutive summary Li-ion battery Energy Storage Systems (ESS) are quickly becoming the most common type of electrochemical energy store for land and marine applications, and the use of the technology is continuously expanding.
Li-Ion battery cells are densely stored in their packs making it hard for a fire suppression agent to reach the fire. The production of oxygen during electrolyte decomposition supports the chemical processes that occur during a fire.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) have emerged as crucial components in our transition towards sustainable energy. As we increasingly promote the use of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, the need for efficient energy storage becomes key.
Off-gas generation in a lithium-ion battery should be considered as the critical window of opportunity to take action to Prevent thermal runaway or a fire condition in a BESS. Results from independent testing suggest an average of 11-12 minutes between detection of off-gas and thermal runaway / detection of smoke.
BESS assets can be found at all scales, from in-cabinet to container to in-building. Although an energy asset, Battery Energy Storage Systems are not the preserve of traditional power and utility companies accustomed to dealing with the specialised operational demands.
Lithium-ion battery fires are ‘deep-seated’, as the materials involved in the ignition and propagation of the fire are tightly integrated into a cell, making fire-fighting a challenge. Lithium-ion battery fires are at risk of ‘re-flash’, hours or even days later having seemingly been put out.
