Configuration of Lithium-Ion Battery Cells: The placement of cells within enclosures or located where suppression systems are obstructed can significantly increase the risk of a fire hazard. In the event of a fire in rack storage, for instance, ceiling-level sprinklers may be ineffective at applying water to the source of the fire.
Emergency response plans and training sessions would also be developed to ensure personnel is prepared in the incident of a fire. These measures collectively enhance fire safety design and reduce the likelihood of hazard escalation. Lithium-ion battery manufacturing is a complex process that faces inherent fire hazards.
The test is a four-step process: The purpose of this test is to evaluate the system’s mechanical design and how it responds to thermal runaway. The UK’s Fire Industry Association (FIA)’s “Guidance on Li-ion Battery Fires”17 Insurers also produce guidelines for loss prevention.
Putting out a Li-ion battery fire refers to both extinguishing the open flame and decreasing the battery temperature. If the battery temperature is high enough after the open flame is extinguished, there is still a possibility that the battery will reignite. Current standards do not have specific requirements for extinguishing Li-ion battery fires.
1. The full extent and impact of fire incidents involving stationary Li-ion-based BESSs remains largely unknown due to limited research in this field. Li-ion battery fires, due to their potential to spread quickly and cause significant damage have made headlines on numerous occasions in recent years.
This guide examined the main fire risks that are associated with Li-ion batteries within stationary BESSs. If undetected, thermal runaway can pose a serious threat to people and property alike and the consequences can be far reaching. Yet, BESS fires remain an under-investigated risk that deserve greater attention.
