Battery fire risks: How low are they? | Jan Rosenow posted on the topic | LinkedIn

Battery energy storage projects have recently made headlines due to high-profile fire incidents, such as those at Moss Landing and a data center serving Elon Musk’s X earlier this year. But how significant are these risks in context? Since 2012, there have been just 28 reported thermal incidents at battery energy storage system (BESS) projects across the US and Canada. While these events attract attention, the reality is that—given the vast number of operational hours for BESS installations in North America—the actual rate of incidents remains extremely low. | 20 comments on LinkedIn
