Energy Storage Safety refers to the practices, protocols, and measures implemented to ensure the safe operation, handling, and management of energy storage systems. These systems, which include batteries, supercapacitors, and other technologies designed to store energy for later use, can pose risks such as chemical leakage, thermal runaway, electrical hazards, and fire. Safety measures encompass the design, installation, and operation of energy storage systems to minimize risks to human health, property, and the environment. This includes proper materials handling, monitoring for safety conditions, adherence to regulations and standards, and the use of protective equipment and emergency response strategies. The aim is to prevent accidents, reduce the potential for harm, and ensure the reliable functionality of energy storage solutions.
