Are beyond-Li-ion energy storage technologies safe?
Safety and degradation of beyond-Li-ion technology: Many emerging energy storage technologies are presented as ‘safer’ alternatives to Li-ion systems. Full, rigorous FMEAs still need to be completed for these new technologies to understand their unique safety and degradation profiles.
What's new in energy storage safety?
Since the publication of the first Energy Storage Safety Strategic Plan in , there have been introductions of new technologies, new use cases, and new codes, standards, regulations, and testing methods. Additionally, failures in deployed energy storage systems (ESS) have led to new emergency response best practices.
Can repurposed EV batteries be used in communication base stations?
Among the potential applications of repurposed EV LIBs, the use of these batteries in communication base stations (CBSs) isone of the most promising candidates owing to the large-scale onsite energy storage demand ( Heymans et al., ; Sathre et al., ).
How can we promote safety and sustainability in battery storage systems?
By implementing robust regulations, investing in research and development, promoting collaboration, embracing circular economy principles, and raising public awareness, we can promote safety and sustainability in battery storage systems and accelerate the transition to a cleaner, more resilient energy future.
