Adhering to these guidelines and incorporating them into a Hazardous
Mitigation Plan enhances the safety and reliability of a battery system
and effectively manages potential risks.
CONCLUSION
Battery technology has undergone significant advancements since the
1990s, introducing a range of new and exciting chemistries to cater to the
increasing demands of the power grid.
As these technologies start to materialize in practical applications,
ensuring safety becomes crucial for their successful operation.
This involves the establishment of safety testing standards and the
implementation of site and personal safety protocols.
It should be noted that not all battery chemistries are suitable for
every application. Therefore, engineers must carefully consider the
distinct characteristics, maintenance requirements, and operational
prerequisites of each technology before implementation. Additionally,
regulatory bodies responsible for enforcing safety measures will
adapt model codes to incorporate specific attributes relevant to their
respective states or municipalities.
