Fire departments need data, research, and better training to deal with energy storage system (ESS) hazards. These are the key findings shared by UL’s Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI) and presented by Sean DeCrane, International Association of Fire Fighters Director of Health and Safety Operational Services at SEAC’s May 2023 General Meeting.
Three primary energy sources make up the energy mix in Guinea: fossil biomass, oil and hydropower. Biomass (firewood and charcoal) makes the largest contribution in primary energy consumption. It is locally produced, while Guinea imports all the petroleum products it needs.
According to a 2012 International Monetary Fund paper, over 74% of households use firewood for cooking. 23% use charcoal. The Electricité Nationale de Guinée (National Electricity Company of Guinea) is responsible for all production and distribution of electricity in the country.
A crucial oil storage in Guinea exploded on Monday destroying infrastructure nearly a mile away and leaving hundreds of people injured in addition to the eighteen people who died A vital oil depot in Guinea exploded on Monday, leaving 18 dead and hundreds of others injured with a fireball from the blast ravaging infrastructure almost a mile away.
The Electricité Nationale de Guinée (National Electricity Company of Guinea) is responsible for all production and distribution of electricity in the country. However, service is poor; even households in Conakry are served less than 12 hours a day.
The blast on Monday morning at the Guinean Petroleum Company depot killed 18 people, with 212 others left injured. The incident has raised concerns over fuel supplies. The explosion tore through the windows of nearby houses in downtown Conakry, and hundreds of residents fled the area, according to witnesses.
