Energy Storage System Fire Protection
What you need to know about BESS fire protection:
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are innovative energy storage solutions commonly employing Lithium-Ion batteries to store electrical energy, which can then be released and utilized as needed. These systems play a pivotal role in modern energy management, grid stability, and the seamless integration of renewable energy sources. BESS serve diverse purposes, including load leveling, grid stabilization, peak shaving, and providing backup power supply. They find applications in renewable energy storage, uninterruptible power supplies, and more recently, as replacements for on-site backup generators.
​
However, it's essential to recognize that BESS can be vulnerable to a phenomenon known as thermal runaway, which can lead to the destruction of the systems and their surroundings. Considering this, fire detection becomes a critical component in ensuring the safety and protection of these systems.
​
To effectively prevent thermal runaways and mitigate the associated risks, BESS operators and owners employ a range of safety measures. This includes the installation of fire detection systems, the implementation of thermal management solutions, the adherence to rigorous safety protocols, and regular maintenance routines. Early detection of warning signs, such as overheating, is of paramount importance, as it triggers appropriate responses to prevent the occurrence of thermal runaways.
​
At EPOSD, we specialize in designing, installing, and servicing these systems directly on the BESS units themselves. Additionally, we create aggregated fire alarm detection networks that encompass the entire BESS container sites, offering comprehensive protection for these critical energy storage facilities.
