View moreWhy do lithium-ion batteries catch fire? Lithium-ion battery cells combine a flammable electrolyte with significant stored energy, and if a lithium-ion battery cell creates more heat than it can effectively disperse, it can lead to a rapid uncontrolled release of heat energy, known as ‘thermal runaway’, that can result in a fire or explosion.
Fire accidents in battery energy storage stations have also gradually increased, and the safety of energy storage has received more and more attention. This paper reviews the research progress on fire behavior and fire prevention strategies of LFP batteries for energy storage at the battery, pack and container levels.
Conclusions Several large-scale lithium-ion energy storage battery fire incidents have involved explosions. The large explosion incidents, in which battery system enclosures are damaged, are due to the deflagration of accumulated flammable gases generated during cell thermal runaways within one or more modules.
Why is water not enough to put out an EV or Lithium Battery fire? When a cell of a lithium battery overheats, the whole battery catches fire eventually; once a lithium battery is on fire, it is very hard to put out. Lithium-ion batteries react fiercely to water; it can take hours, maybe even days to put out the battery with just water.
The fire risk hinders the large scale application of LIBs in electric vehicles and energy storage systems. This manuscript provides a comprehensive review of the thermal runaway phenomenon and related fire dynamics in singe LIB cells as well as in multi-cell battery packs. Potential fire prevention measures are also discussed.
With the advantages of high energy density, short response time and low economic cost, utility-scale lithium-ion battery energy storage systems are built and installed around the world. However, due to the thermal runaway characteristics of lithium-ion batteries, much more attention is attracted to the fire safety of battery energy storage systems.
