6 FAQs about [Large-scale fire experiment of energy storage system]

What is a battery energy storage system (BESS)?

There has been a dramatic increase in the use of battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the United States. These systems are used in residential, commercial, and utility scale applications. Most of these systems consist of multiple lithium-ion battery cells. A single battery cell (7 x 5 x 2 inches) can store 350 Whr of energy.

Are grid-scale battery energy storage systems safe?

Despite widely known hazards and safety design of grid-scale battery energy storage systems, there is a lack of established risk management schemes and models as compared to the chemical, aviation, nuclear and the petroleum industry.

How common are battery storage fires & explosions?

Incidents of battery storage facility fires and explosions are reported every year since 2018, resulting in human injuries, and millions of US dollars in loss of asset and operation.

What is a large-scale fire test?

A large-scale fire test aims to fulfill those limitations of UL 9540A and provide additional data on what might happen if a system were to fail at a project site as well as ensure the safety features designed into the system function as intended.

What is battery energy storage fire prevention & mitigation?

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.

How does distance affect the fire propagation of a horizontal battery pack?

The fire propagation of the horizontal battery pack is greatly affected by the distance. The farther the battery string is from the thermal runaway battery, the later the fire propagation battery string occurs.
