The report is a culmination of a two-year research project examining the characteristics of fires resulting from the overheating of lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (ESS) within residential structures.
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.
Early detection and warning systems and proper ventilation can help avoid disaster when thermal runaway occurs. Pairing your suppression technique of choice with a very early detection system apparatus ( VESDA ) will help ensure your building has the greatest amount of built-in safety possible in the event of a BESS fire.
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.
