Note that the Stationary Energy Storage Failure Incidents table tracks both utility-scale and C&I system failures. It is instructive to compare the number of failure incidents over time against the deployment of BESS. The graph to the right looks at the failure rate per cumulative deployed capacity, up to 12/31/2023.
For more information on energy storage safety, visit the Storage Safety Wiki Page. The BESS Failure Incident Database was initiated in 2021 as part of a wider suite of BESS safety research after the concentration of lithium ion BESS fires in South Korea and the Surprise, AZ, incident in the US.
Stationary Energy Storage Failure Incidents – this table tracks utility-scale and commercial and industrial (C&I) failures. Other Storage Failure Incidents – this table tracks incidents that do not fit the criteria for the first table. This could include failures involving the manufacturing, transportation, storage, and recycling of energy storage.
To ensure power grid stability, demand for large stationary energy storage systems (battery cabinets) has increased rapidly. However, several fire and explosion incidents in connection with energy storage systems have made people realize that the road to renewable energy is not as smooth as one would hope, and that more challenges likely await.
For up-to-date public data on energy storage failures, see the EPRI BESS Failure Event Database.2 The Energy Storage Integration Coun-cil (ESIC) Energy Storage Reference Fire Hazard Mitigation Analysis (ESIC Reference HMA),3 illustrates the complexity of achieving safe storage systems.
Other Storage Failure Incidents – this table tracks incidents that do not fit the criteria for the first table. This could include failures involving the manufacturing, transportation, storage, and recycling of energy storage. Residential energy storage system failures are not currently tracked.

Lithium ion battery energy storage systems (BESS) hazards
Lithium-ion batteries are electro-chemical energy storage devices with a relatively high energy density. Under a variety of scenarios that cause a short circuit, batteries can undergo thermal-runaway where the stored chemical energy is converted to thermal energy. The typical consequence is cell rupture and the release of flammable and toxic ...
