The energy storage equipment caught fine in Salt Lake substation in Arizona, US on April 18th, bringing a continuous burning for 5 days and kept smoking. The local fire department kept monitoring the condition of equipment, and on 21st addressed all the employees shall evacuate before 6 p.m.
The energy storage caught with accident located at around Arizona Road Chandler 10 and 56th street in the southeast of No.202 beltway. There are 3200 pieces of li-ion batteries, with total capacity of 10MW/40MWh in that base, which is the first state owned energy storage project first disclosed in 2018. The solution of the project is provided by Fluence, and Mortenson is the EPC.
According to the local officials, they have noticed all the enterprises 0.25 feet around to evacuate at 6 p.m. on 21st.Conclusion: As li-ion batteries are more widely used, from Bluetooth buds to container energy storage, the safety is under great emphasis. The risk shall be lowered at the stages of design and manufacture; meanwhile the testing procedure shall be more effective, so that we can avoid accident occurring in transporting, using and recycling.
