Technical FAQs 4

What is a batery energy storage system?

Batery energy storage systems (BESS) stabilize the electrical grid, ensuring a steady flow of power to homes and businesses regardless of fluctuations from varied energy sources or other disruptions. However, fires at some BESS installations have caused concern in communities considering BESS as a method to support their grids.

Are large-scale lithium battery energy storage systems safe?

Large-scale lithium battery energy storage systems (BESS) are a cornerstone of the global transition to renewable energy. However, their deployment comes with inherent risks, particularly the danger of thermal runaway, fires, and toxic fumes.

Are lithium battery fires and toxic fumes a risk in grid-scale energy storage systems?

Conclusion The risks of lithium battery fires and toxic fumes in grid-scale energy storage systems require robust site-specific safety measures. From fire suppression and toxic gas mitigation to cooling systems and emergency preparedness, each layer of protection reduces the likelihood of catastrophic events.

Did EPA require environmental monitoring during batery handling and disposal operations?

Following the incident, EPA has required the Gateway facility to conduct extensive environmental monitoring during batery handling and disposal operations and submit detailed work plans and progress reports.1 Figure 1.
