Battery systems, modules and cells must be protected against external (electrical) fires. Possible measures: Fire alarm system with automatic extinguishing system for electrical risks. The extinguishing agent should ensure zero residue to the protection of the installation.
The 2018 International Fire Code, Section 608, covers Fire Codes for Energy Storage Systems, specifically Stationary Storage Battery Systems (with permission of the International Code Council).
The fire risk hinders the large scale application of LIBs in electric vehicles and energy storage systems. This manuscript provides a comprehensive review of the thermal runaway phenomenon and related fire dynamics in singe LIB cells as well as in multi-cell battery packs.
First and foremost, every litium-ion battery energy storage poses an electrical fire risk. Statistics (GDV) show that in around 25% of all cases, electrical fires are the cause of major losses and the main cause of fires in industrial companies.
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.
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.
