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.
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.
Lithium-ion battery technology has become a standard solution in this application due to its technical performance. However, its unique fire hazard is a concern in the industry, increasing the need for dedicated lithium-ion battery fire suppression solutions.
Therefore, it is first of all necessary to protect the storage systems from an external fire event in order to prevent cell breakdown processes initiated due to external combustion heat. First and foremost, every litium-ion battery energy storage poses an electrical fire risk.
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.
From the point that a fire is established and developing the task moves from fire prevention to suppression and containment. The mere presence of Lithium-Ion batteries in a room represents a considerable risk of fire - whether they are in storage or operational.
