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.
Because of the high energy stored, Lithium-Ion battery energy storage systems are an application with a clear need for comprehensive fire protection. Active control of the energy being stored and extracted from Lithium-Ion batteries has been the foundation of their increasing popularity.
Provision of suitable compartmentation around the battery packs to limit the spread of any fire, this is probably much simpler in marine applications. Suitable Battery Management Systems linked to fire and gas detection systems to enable fast detection to allow for activation of fire protection systems and evacuation of passengers where applicable.
LIB-ESSs contain a large quantity of batteries and have high energy density. Understanding the burning behavior of these systems is critical to proper fire protection system design. To facilitate this effort, a series of small- to large-scale fire tests were conducted using ESS comprised of either LFP or LNO/LMO batteries.
The fire propagation behavior of lithium-ion battery warehouse was studied. The SOC value of stored lithium-ion batteries should be as small as possible. When storing 70%–100% SOC batteries, a quick-response sprinkler shall be set. To prevent the spread of fire, a critical value of shelf spacing is defined.
With the rapid development of LIBs, reports on accidents in the production, storage, and transportation of LIBs have continued to emerge in recent years; specifically, there has been a frequent occurrence of fire accidents in the lithium-ion battery (LIB) warehouses.
