While lenders may need to undertake additional diligence before financing an energy storage project, the project finance market for energy storage has grown, and is expected to continue to grow, alongside
While the traditional safety engineering risk assessment method are still applicable to new energy storage system, the fast pace of technological change is introducing unknown into systems and creates new paths to hazards and losses (e.g., software control).
This paper demonstrated that systemic based risk assessment such Systems Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) is suitable for complicated energy storage system but argues that element of probabilistic risk-based assessment needs to be incorporated.
Technology Risks Lithium-ion batteries remain the most widespread technology used in energy storage systems, but energy storage systems also use hydrogen, compressed air, and other battery technologies. Project finance lenders view all of these newer technologies as having increased risk due to a lack of historical data.
This work describes an improved risk assessment approach for analyzing safety designs in the battery energy storage system incorporated in large-scale solar to improve accident prevention and mitigation, via incorporating probabilistic event tree and systems theoretic analysis. The causal factors and mitigation measures are presented.
Risk management for BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) involves identifying potential hazards, assessing the likelihood and impact of these hazards, and implementing measures to mitigate them. This proactive approach can help prevent incidents and ensure the safe operation of energy storage systems.
Traditional risk assessment methods such as Event Tree Analysis, Fault Tree Analysis, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, Hazards and Operability, and Systems Theoretic Process Analysis are becoming inadequate for designing accident prevention and mitigation measures in complex power systems.
