The energy storage system lacks effective protective measures, it may cause the expansion of battery accidents. If the energy storage device is arranged indoors, when the flammable gas reaches a certain concentration, it will explode in case of a naked fire, and more serious situation is the chain explosion accident.
The large explosion incidents, in which battery system enclosures are damaged, are due to the deflagration of accumulated flammable gases generated during cell thermal runaways within one or more modules. Smaller explosions are often due to energetic arc flashes within modules or rack electrical protection enclosures.
"The sudden explosion of the power station in the north area could be explained by the safety accident induction mechanism of lithium batteries, which is the thermal failure of the batteries in the extreme conditions when they were significantly affected by internal and external sources.
According to the investigation report, it is determined that the cause of the fire accident of the energy storage system is the excessive voltage and current caused by the surge effect during the system recovery and startup process, and it is not effectively protected by the BMS system.
Some of these batteries have experienced troubling fires and explosions. There have been two types of explosions; flammable gas explosions due to gases generated in battery thermal runaways, and electrical arc explosions leading to structural failure of battery electrical enclosures.
Some scientists say thermal runaway may have triggered the blast. Around three weeks ago, the explosion of a 30 kWh battery storage system caused a stir in Lauterbach, in the central German state of Hesse. The system owner is an electronics technician specializing in energy and building services, with 20 years of professional experience.
