Abstract
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are compatible with renewable energy, so they are becoming increasingly popular around the world. On the other hand, the number of fire accidents are increasing with the spread of batteries, and as a result of the author's own analysis of these fire accidents, the author found phenomena unique to BESS fires. Therefore, the author will investigate whether Japan domestic laws and regulations are compatible with these unique phenomena and propose necessary safety countermeasures.
期刊介绍:
Electrical Engineering in Japan (EEJ) is an official journal of the Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan (IEEJ). This authoritative journal is a translation of the Transactions of the Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan. It publishes 16 issues a year on original research findings in Electrical Engineering with special focus on the science, technology and applications of electric power, such as power generation, transmission and conversion, electric railways (including magnetic levitation devices), motors, switching, power economics.
