Battery energy storage systems (BESS) have become increasingly common in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. As adoption grows, a frequent question arises: are battery energy storage systems safe?. Lithium-ion batteries are used in most applications ranging from consumer electronics to electric vehicles and grid energy storage systems as well as marine and space applications. Apart from Li-ion battery chemistry, there are several potential chemistries that can be used for stationary grid. . Battery energy storage systems can perform, among others, the following functions: 1. Provide the flexibility needed to increase the level of variable solar and wind energy that can be accommodated on the grid. Help provide back-up power during emergencies like blackouts from storms, equipment. . As battery energy storage systems expand, recent fires and explosions prove compliance isn't enough.
