As its name implies – "aspirated" smoke and off-gas detection systems use an "aspirator" mounted in a detector unit. The detector connects to a sample pipe network mounted within the area or object being.
As the use of these variable sources of energy grows – so does the use of energy storage systems. Energy storage is a key component in balancing out supply and demand fluctuations. Today, lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS) have proven to be the most effective type and, as a result, installations are growing fast.
“The main fire risks in battery energy storage systems stem from thermal runaway, an event where a cell overheats and triggers a chain reaction within neighbouring cells,” EticaAG's CTO says. 1.
Battery storage fire events can have severe and far-reaching impacts, affecting individual projects, entire portfolios, and the broader energy storage industry. Impacts on individual projects include asset damage and operational downtime, insurance costs, and claims.
Compliance with new regulations often brings additional operational and capital costs,” he says. Meanwhile, high-profile fire incidents can erode public and stakeholder trust in energy storage, slowing the industry's growth and adoption rates, particularly in sensitive applications like residential or urban installations.
Since December 2019, Siemens has been offering a VdS-certified fire detection concept for stationary lithium-ion battery energy storage systems.* Through Siemens research with multiple lithium-ion battery manufacturers, the FDA unit has proven to detect a pending battery fire event up to 5 times faster than competitive detection technologies.
As a result, liquid cooling provides thermal management but not fire suppression. “In the event of a thermal runaway, liquid-cooled systems may not stop fire propagation, leaving the risk of escalating events unaddressed,” Jack Wu says.
ATESS EnerMatrix containerized energy storage systems are equipped with comprehensive and advanced fire protection, suppression, and integrated control systems, providing a robust safeguard for the safe operation of energy storage power stations.
There are currently no national rules, advice or standards for how fire protection should be dimensioned or where battery energy storage systems can be installed in Sweden. This creates an uncertainty for those who want to install battery energy storage systems. The aim of this project is to produce national guidelines regarding fire safety of BESS
This increase underscores the growing role of battery storage systems in stabilising and supporting Sweden's energy infrastructure. Swedish Solar Energy launched version 1.1 of its fire protection guideline for stationary battery storage systems on October 29, 2024.
To sum up, the energy storage industry in Sweden is in a phase of rapid development, and these energy storage companies have taken a significant position in the market through continuous innovation and optimization of solutions.

In the commercial sector, battery capacity is also set to grow, with installations on industrial sites expected to collectively surpass 1,000 MW by the end of 2024, compared to around 100 MW at the end of 2023. The number of batteries pre-qualified to deliver support services to the Swedish power grid rose substantially from 40 MW to 80 MW in 2023.
NFPA 855, “Standard for the Installation of Energy Storage Systems”, provides guidelines and requirements for the safe design, installation, operation, and maintenance of energy storage systems. This is where the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 855 comes in. In this blog post, we'll dive into what NFPA 855 is, why it's important, and the key. NFPA is keeping pace with the surge in energy storage and solar technology by undertaking initiatives including training, standards development, and research so that various stakeholders can safely embrace renewable energy sources and respond if potential new hazards arise. The standard applies to all energy storage tec nologies and includes chapters for speci Chapter 9 and specific are largely harmonized with those in the NFPA 855 2023 edition. The incidence of battery fires is increasing.
