Utility-scale lithium-ion energy storage batteries are being installed at an accelerating rate in many parts of the world. Some of these batteries have experienced troubling fires and explosions.
Lithium-ion energy storage battery explosion incidents. The objectives of this paper are 1) to describe some generic scenarios of energy storage battery fire incidents involving explosions,
NFPA 855, the Standard for the Installation of Stationary Energy Storage Systems, calls for explosion control in the form of either explosion prevention in accordance with NFPA 69 or

Here, experimental and numerical studies on the gas explosion hazards of container type lithium-ion battery energy storage station are carried out. In the experiment, the LiFePO 4 battery module of 8.8kWh was overcharged to thermal runaway in a real energy storage container, and the combustible gases were ignited to trigger an explosion.
Variation process of combustion rate in energy storage container during explosion. Due to the numerous battery modules installed in the container, the flame was limited in the middle aisle and on the top of the container. Fig. 7 a showed the combustion rate distribution at 0.24 second.
Based on the surveillance records of the experiment, it can be assumed that the combustible gases in the container were evenly distributed before the explosion. In the overcharging process, the electrolytes consumed by chemical reactions in the batteries were limited.
Considering that gas explosion may cause thermal runaway of battery module in the actual scene, the existence of high-temperature zone may be longer and the temperature peak may be higher. After the combustible gas got on fire, the gases volume expanded by high-temperature compresses the volume of the surrounding gases.
The results showed that the combustible gases produced by a single battery module during thermal runaway will cause an explosion if the gas concentration is not timely reduced and the ignition source with enough energy appears. The main component of combustible gases is vaporized electrolyte (VE).
The fire and explosion accident of ESS will not only seriously threaten the safety of life and property, but its bad social impact will also severely limit the large-scale application of energy storage technology and hinder the progress of the energy revolution.
