The field of battery research and development is constantly evolving, having inched into the spotlight during the oil crisis in the 1970s with a primary focus on developing new battery technology with higher energy density and output.
Electrochemical battery storage systems possess the third highest installed capacity of 2.03 GW, indicating their significant potential to contribute to the implementation of sustainable energy .
Battery-based energy storage is one of the most significant and effective methods for storing electrical energy. The optimum mix of efficiency, cost, and flexibility is provided by the electrochemical energy storage device, which has become indispensable to modern living.
Storage batteries are available in a range of chemistries and designs, which have a direct bearing on how fires grow and spread. The applicability of potential response strategies and technology may be constrained by this wide range. Off gassing: toxic and extremely combustible vapors are emitted from battery energy storage systems .
Even the progress is sluggish, under the incentives of national governments, researches on the design of advanced materials, the fabrication of new electrodes, the optimization of battery engineering etc. have never been ceasing, trying to push the boundaries of energy density, power density, cycle life, cost and safety.
The main focus of energy storage research is to develop new technologies that may fundamentally alter how we store and consume energy while also enhancing the performance, security, and endurance of current energy storage technologies. For this reason, energy density has recently received a lot of attention in battery research.
