Fires linked to lithium-ion batteries also have hit Europe and Australia. The events, particularly in South Korea, have begun to take a toll on energy storage companies.
In the United States, an investigation continues into the April 19 fire and explosion at Arizona Public Service Co.'s 2-MW Surprise Battery Storage System that injured a team of firefighters and caused two other plants to temporarily shut down as a precaution.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is a type of system that uses an arrangement of batteries and other electrical equipment to store electrical energy. BESS have been increasingly used in residential, commercial, industrial, and utility applications for peak shaving or grid support.
Lithium-ion batteries contain flammable electrolytes, which can create unique hazards when the battery cell becomes compromised and enters thermal runaway. The initiating event is frequently a short circuit which may be a result of overcharging, overheating, or mechanical abuse.
Ariz., before a fire in April took it offline. Analysts at IHS Markit expect grid-connected storage installations in the U.S. to nearly double to 712 MW in 2019, making the U.S. the world's largest battery storage market, as South Korea struggles to overcome its market collapse in the first half of 2019.
