An EV charging station represents a fire risk due to the large battery energy storage system (BESS) in the electric vehicle. Any fire at an EV charging station has the potential to spread to the vehicle being charged, which represents a significant fire load. When fully involved with fire, the vehicle can easily spread to adjacent vehicles or structures, as was shown in the video.
For at least a decade, intensive efforts have been made to develop appropriate methods to allow firefighters to deal with the problem of fires of electric vehicles. These activities were directed, among others, at new fire extinguishing/suppression techniques, innovative extinguishing agents and methods of their application.
Lithium-ion battery fires during charging are often due to overheating caused by a defect in the battery or battery management system. The large BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) in an EV also poses a fire risk that should not be ignored. Any fire at an EV charging station can potentially spread to the vehicle being charged.
Fires in fully or partially electric vehicles are much more difficult to fully extinguish compared to fires in vehicles with internal combustion engines. So far, no effective method has been developed that would allow a fire to be extinguished in a short time. Activities in this area focus on minimizing the effects.
To accommodate a large demand for EV charging, ESS will be necessary to supplement direct grid electrical supply for Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations. When demand subsides, such as overnight, the ESS will recharge from the grid supply and be ready for the next peak in EV charging demand.
During the tests, fire simulations were also used. The AF31, Hartindo AF21, A-B-D were compared. Gaseous extinguish Purple K and Novec 1230 extinguishing agents. The results show
