Batteries, and more specifically lithium-ion batteries, have become a cornerstone of the energy transition. Lithium-ion batteries have been widely used to power our electronic devices, vehicles, or energy storage systems. However, this exponential number of produced batteries comes with an increasing attention to battery safety. Indeed, batteries – as dynamic electrochemical and electronic bodies – are exposed to failures and safety issues.
In recent years, battery powered systems fire and thermal runaway incidents have been frequently reported. Have a look for instance at Moss Landing BESS fire in September 2022 or the cumulated 30 BESS fires in South Korea since 2017. Lithium-ion batteries high density & power, long cycle life and wide operation temperature ranges seem to be a befitting way to decarbonize our societies. Yet, ill-controlled operation conditions or battery failures can put an end to it: overcharge, over-discharge, over-temperature, cell-imbalance or even lithium plating leading to internal short-circuits, are all causes that can lead to major safety problems.
In this context, BESS or EV fleets integrators and operators are seeking intelligent solution that could provide data and adaptive control to protect their asset and optimize its performance.
