For businesses that use battery energy storage systems, there are several proactive steps that can be taken to protect against a fire. This includes three specific methods: One of the primary methods to combat thermal runaway in BESS is through the use of cooling agents.
With the advantages of high energy density, short response time and low economic cost, utility-scale lithium-ion battery energy storage systems are built and installed around the world. However, due to the thermal runaway characteristics of lithium-ion batteries, much more attention is attracted to the fire safety of battery energy storage systems.
Among them, the most common method in BESCs is the spraying method. There are several nozzles arranged inside the container, and the fire extinguishing agent is sprayed in an umbrella shape, covering a large area when extinguishing the battery fire. Long-term spraying has a good cooling effect .
Fire suppression strategies of battery energy storage systems In the BESC systems, a large amount of flammable gas and electrolyte are released and ignited after safety venting, which could cause a large-scale fire accident.
When the high-temperature gas is emitted or burned, the tube melts and releases the fire extinguishing agent, thereby cooling the battery or extinguishing the fire in advance. In this way, a large amount of high-pressure fire extinguishing agent can be injected into the battery fire, which has a good fire extinguishing effect.
Fire accidents in battery energy storage stations have also gradually increased, and the safety of energy storage has received more and more attention. This paper reviews the research progress on fire behavior and fire prevention strategies of LFP batteries for energy storage at the battery, pack and container levels.
