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.
For up-to-date public data on energy storage failures, see the EPRI BESS Failure Event Database.2 The Energy Storage Integration Coun-cil (ESIC) Energy Storage Reference Fire Hazard Mitigation Analysis (ESIC Reference HMA),3 illustrates the complexity of achieving safe storage systems.
The EESS is composed of battery, converter and control system. In order to meet the demand for large capacity, energy storage power stations use a large number of single batteries in series or in parallel, which makes it easy to cause thermal runaway of batteries, which poses a serious threat to the safety of energy storage power stations.
This roadmap provides necessary information to support owners, opera-tors, and developers of energy storage in proactively designing, building, operating, and maintaining these systems to minimize fire risk and ensure the safety of the public, operators, and environment.
Some safety accidents of energy storage stations in recent years . A fire broke out during the construction and commissioning of the energy storage power station of Beijing Guoxuan FWT, resulting in the sacrifice of two firefighters, the injury of one firefighter (stable condition) and the loss of one employee in the power station.
For the evaluation of the reliability of the energy storage system, M. Arifujjaman et al. proposed to use the mean time between failures (MTBF) to evaluate the reliability of the energy storage system. On the other hand, we can make a series of management measures from battery management and battery management system.
