6 FAQs about [Outdoor fire protection design for energy storage battery compartment]

What is battery energy storage fire prevention & mitigation?

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.

How to protect a battery from a fire?

Used and damaged batteries should not be kept in rooms or areas larger than 18.6 m 2 . A fire barrier with a fire-resistance rating of 2 h should be utilized to separate rooms or storage spaces from the rest of the building structure . A radiant energy detector and an automatic sprinkler system are required to protect the compartment .

Are battery energy storage systems safe?

Owners of energy storage need to be sure that they can deploy systems safely. Over a recent 18-month period ending in early 2020, over two dozen large-scale battery energy storage sites around the world had experienced failures that resulted in destructive fires. In total, more than 180 MWh were involved in the fires.

Can a lithium-ion battery energy storage system detect a fire?

Since December 2019, Siemens has been offering a VdS-certified fire detection concept for stationary lithium-ion battery energy storage systems.* Through Siemens research with multiple lithium-ion battery manufacturers, the FDA unit has proven to detect a pending battery fire event up to 5 times faster than competitive detection technologies.

How do you protect a battery module from a fire?

The most practical protection option is usually an external, fixed firefighting system. A fixed firefighting system does not stop an already occurring thermal runaway sequence within a battery module, but it can prevent fire spread from module to module, or from pack to pack, or to adjacent combustibles within the space.

What are the requirements for a battery storage system?

If prefabs and containers are used -with a maximum area of 18.6 m 2 - the compartment must have a radiant energy detector system, a 2 h fire tolerance rating, and an automatic fire suppression system . If metal drums are used, vermiculite can be used to isolate the batteries from each other.
