This document describes the procedures to follow when dealing with a fire or physical damage to energy storage systems (ESS). These systems are modern storage batteries usually with a lithium or nickel
This roadmap provides necessary information to support owners, opera-tors, and developers of energy storage in proactively designing, building, operating, and maintaining these systems to minimize fire
At any fire where you believe a battery may be involved in the ignition, ensure you document make/model of battery and charger if being used, ask about the history of the battery (usage,
Management of a BESS requires reducing fire risk and managing thermal runway or fire in the unlikely event that it occurs. Other non-battery electrical systems which form part of the BESS also carry fire
Lithium fires can be difficult to extinguish, your goal should be preventing the fire from spreading, if safe to do so, and calling FENZ (Fire and Emergency New Zealand) as soon as possible.
