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.
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.
Afterward, the advanced thermal runaway warning and battery fire detection technologies are reviewed. Next, the multi-dimensional detection technologies that have applied in battery energy storage systems are discussed. Moreover, the general battery fire extinguishing agents and fire extinguishing methods are introduced.
High-quality fire extinguishing agents and effective fire extinguishing strategies are the main means and necessary measures to suppress disasters in the design of battery energy storage stations . Traditional fire extinguishing methods include isolation, asphyxiation, cooling, and chemical suppression .
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.
In actual battery fire detection scenes, a combination of multiple detection methods is generally selected to maximize early warning efficiency. Since batteries are in the form of modules and packs, each battery pack has a BMS system, which monitors the safety status of the battery by monitoring voltage and temperature signals.
