6 FAQs about [Fire fighting equipment for energy storage system]

Can a battery energy storage system control electrical fires?

However, these systems may be used in the computer or control rooms of an ESS to control any electrical fires. Thermal runaway in lithium batteries results in an uncontrollable rise in temperature and propagation of extreme fire hazards within a battery energy storage system (BESS).

What is HI-FOG water mist fire protection system?

The HI-FOG system ensures the fire safety of lithium-ion battery energy storage systems. The HI‐FOG water mist fire protection system has several advantages over traditional sprinkler systems for Li-ion battery fire suppression: cloud_download Download Fire protection of Li-ion BESS white paper

What is a battery energy storage system?

A battery energy storage system (BESS) is well defined by its name. It is a means for storing electricity in a system of batteries for later use. As a system, BESSs are typically a collection of battery modules and load management equipment.

What should first responders know about energy storage systems?

This document provides guidance to first responders for incidents involving energy storage systems (ESS). The guidance is specific to ESS with lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, but some elements may apply to other technologies also. Hazards addressed include fire, explosion, arc flash, shock, and toxic chemicals.

How does a fixed firefighting system work?

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. The afected module is likely to be fully lost, but the adjacent modules can be saved.

Is fire suppression equipment included in an ESS?

suppression equipment may or may not be provided as an integral part of an ESS, or it may be optional. Depending on the case, the ESS shall comply with all applicable performance requirements in the standard with and/or without the fire detection and fire suppression equipment in place and operational.
