Electrical Safety Incidents Involving Battery Energy Storage Systems Tactical Considerations for Mitigation

Tactical Considerations for Mitigation

For effective mitigation during Stages 1 and 2, remember the following:

  • Identify the number and location of modules involved.
  • Access safety data sheets.
  • Evaluate thermal propagation potential.
  • Verify electrical isolation of the BESS.
  • Initiate ventilation.
  • Provide maximum cooling to absorb heat generation and maintain thermal balance.
  • Monitor for off-gassing.
