The aim of this project is to produce national guidelines regarding fire safety of BESS. In order to utilize renewable energy sources such as solar and wind to their full potential, we need to be able to store the energy produced by these sources. One way to do this is to use battery energy storage systems (BESS).
This Handbook offers an overview of the various aspects of energy storage (e. g. chemical energy storage, electrochemical energy storage, heat storage).
