The energy storage system was installed and put into operation in 2018, with a photovoltaic power generation capacity of 3.4MW and a storage capacity of 10MWh. The explosion destroyed 0.5MW of energy storage batteries. It is understood that the lithium-ion battery cell supplier of the energy storage station is LG New Energy.
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.
There have also been considerable reports of fires and explosions in lithium battery energy storage stations. According to incomplete statistics, there have been over 30 incidents of fire and explosion at energy storage plants worldwide in the past 10 years.
According to incomplete statistics from the National Energy Information Platform, there have been a total of 32 incidents of fire and explosion at energy storage plants worldwide, including 1 in Japan, 2 in the United States, 1 in Belgium, 3 in China, and 24 in South Korea.
And the fire and explosion of energy storage stations have certain characteristics, mainly including: the types of accident batteries are mostly ternary lithium-ion batteries, and most of them occur during charging and rest periods.
However, the combustible gases produced by the batteries during thermal runaway process may lead to explosions in energy storage station. Here, experimental and numerical studies on the gas explosion hazards of container type lithium-ion battery energy storage station are carried out.
