Essentials on Containerized BESS Fire Safety
However, the risk of thermal runaway in lithium batteries makes fire protection systems a critical safeguard for energy storage safety. This
The Lithium-Ion Batteries and Fire Sprinklers Guide is a must-have for fire protection professionals, facility managers, and safety authorities, offering practical recommendations, up-to-date regulatory insights, and guidance for addressing this rapidly evolving hazard.
Understanding the causes of lithium battery fires is crucial for prevention. You should always use the appropriate extinguishing agents. For lithium-metal battery fires, Class D extinguishers are essential. For lithium-ion battery fires, standard ABC extinguishers or foam with CO2 and powder graphite are effective.
This section explores three common fire suppression systems for outdoor ESS enclosures: automatic sprinklers, water mist, and gaseous suppression systems. Their respective advantages and limitations will be compared. Automatic Sprinkler System.
The emphasis is on risk mitigation measures and particularly on active fire protection. cooling of batteries by dedicated air or water-based circulation methods. structural means to prevent the fire from spreading out of the afected space. ABS, BV, DNV, LR, and RINA. 3. Basics of lithium-ion battery technology
