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 addition, any embryo fire must be quickly extinguished using automated, targeted extinguishing systems to prevent a large number of cells, batteries or battery modules incurring thermal runaway and catching fire. Li-ion battery energy storage systems are an application with a clear need for comprehensive fire protection.
To develop an appropriate solution for the specific application of managed stationary storage systems it was necessary to conduct a series of experiments and tests. Our work has shown that Li-ion battery energy storage systems can be a controllable application when it comes to fire protection.
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.
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.
