Lithium-ion battery technology has become a standard solution in this application due to its technical performance. However, its unique fire hazard is a concern in the industry, increasing the need for dedicated lithium-ion battery fire suppression solutions.
Evidence has shown that the key to successful fire protection of lithium-ion batteries is suppressing/extinguishing the fire, reducing of heat-transfer from cell to cell and then cooling the adjacent cells that make up the battery pack/module.
Currently ESS’s are available on the market with battery capacities in a range between 5 – 500 kWh and in very large applications with a capacity of several thousand kWh (see table 5). Because of the high energy stored, Lithium-Ion battery energy storage systems are an application with a clear need for comprehensive fire protection.
