Dear members,
On Tuesday the 21st of May the engineering firm Royal Haskoningn will come by during the lunch break to give a lunch lecture about the safe integration of large-scale Li-ion batteries in industrial installations. Battery Energy Storage Systems (ESS) are an essential part of a sustainable energy future as they ensure reliable power supply and enable the efficient utilisation of renewable energy sources. A presentation will be given on Li-ion batteries in general and their place in the current energy storage market, followed by a presentation on safety considerations and hazard mitigation for Li-ion batteries. Finally, RHDHV will do an interactive walkthrough of a fictional case regarding the advice on technical safety in the integration of Li-ion batteries in industrial installations with the goal of starting a discussion on the various technical safety aspects of Li-ion batteries and BESS in general.
