Fire burns for five days at huge lithium-ion energy storage facility
A fire at a California lithium-ion battery energy storage facility once described as the world''s largest has burned for five days, prompting evacuation orders. The fire broke out on Wednesday at the 250MW Gateway Energy Storage facility owned by grid infrastructure developer LS Power in San Diego.
Emerging Hazards of Battery Energy Storage System Fires
There has been a dramatic increase in the use of battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the United States. These systems are used in residential, commercial, and utility scale applications. Most of these systems consist of multiple lithium-ion battery cells. A single battery cell (7 x 5 x 2 inches) can store 350 Whr of energy.
