The new tramway in Liège, Belgium, will feature trams equipped with onboard battery energy storage for off-wire operation; a mock-up of a CAF Urbos unit on display in the
The new technology is based on an onboard energy storage system (OBESS), with scalable battery capacity. It can be installed directly on the roof of existing trams - saving on costs, and visual impact – all while ensuring better environmental performance for a more sustainable society. In Florence, battery powered trams have been tested since 2021.
Note that the Stationary Energy Storage Failure Incidents table tracks both utility-scale and C&I system failures. It is instructive to compare the number of failure incidents over time against the deployment of BESS. The graph to the right looks at the failure rate per cumulative deployed capacity, up to 12/31/2024.
Interactions with power supply and discharge systems occur via an external Power Conversion System and Energy Management System as shown in Fig. 1. Battery Energy Storage Units have doors for operating and maintenance personnel and for installation and replacement of equipment.
The focus of the database is on lithium ion technologies, but other battery technology failure incidents are included. Failure incident: An occurrence caused by a BESS system or component failure which resulted in increased safety risk. For lithium ion BESS, this is typically a thermal risk such as fire or explosion.
Stationary Energy Storage Failure Incidents – this table tracks utility-scale and commercial and industrial (C&I) failures. Other Storage Failure Incidents – this table tracks incidents that do not fit the criteria for the first table. This could include failures involving the manufacturing, transportation, storage, and recycling of energy storage.
In Florence, battery powered trams have been tested since 2021. Fitted to trams on the existing Sirio fleet, the battery technology enables the trams to operate on a section of the line entirely under battery power, without the use of overhead infrastructure.
