Within just a few days, the NEA has issued several documents underscoring the safety management of energy storage stations, strictly implementing responsibilities of related parties, strengthening the operation and maintenance management of critical equipment, and proactively completing the construction of safety monitoring information platforms. This demonstrates the government’s great attention to energy storage safety and its determination to prevent safety incidents. It also sets higher requirements for the construction and development of the energy storage industry.
In the field of energy storage safety early warning, the NEA has provided guidance in the following areas: 1. Attach great importance to the safety management of electrochemical energy storage stations. 2. Strengthen the planning and design safety management of electrochemical energy storage stations; 3. Strengthen the operation and maintenance safety management of electrochemical energy storage station; 4. Improve the emergency and fire disposal capabilities of electrochemical energy storage station.
Specifically, several detailed measures for the safety management early warning of energy storage stations are proposed, such as:
Great importance should be attached to the safety management of electrochemical energy storage stations, and resolute measures should be taken to prevent safety accidents in such stations. It is necessary to incorporate the operation and maintenance of electrochemical energy storage stations into the daily work safety management of enterprises, conduct regular inspections on main equipment, facilities and systems, and regularly organize emergency drills for electrolyte leakage disposal, battery thermal runaway and fire, etc.
Measures should be taken to proactively cooperate in the construction of the safety monitoring information platform for electrochemical energy storage stations, and report work safety information such as battery safety performance, safe operation status of the stations, hazard investigation and governance, risk control and accident events according to relevant regulations, further enhancing the information management level of the stations.
Energy storage safety early warning: Construction of an information platform is an inevitable trend.
The current safety monitoring in energy storage stations is divided into battery body monitoring and external electrical equipment monitoring, with systems operating independently. This often leads to information silos as well as failure in comprehensively monitoring and providing early warnings for the overall safety of energy storage stations. With the increasing demand for digital, information-based and intelligent management of electric power and energy storage safety, the construction of safety monitoring information platforms for energy storage stations has become an inevitable trend.
CloudScout specializes in the research and development of online safety monitoring and early warning systems as well as AI intelligent cloud platforms for energy storage stations. By integrating active online monitoring systems with BMS, monitoring and firefighting equipment, CloudScout creates an unified online monitoring and early warning management platform, which enables fusion analysis, alarm linkage and remote control, significantly improving the accuracy and efficiency of energy storage safety early warning.
