6. Mitigation strategies

Controlling the risks associated with lithium-ion battery fires requires a systemic approach combining prevention measures, active and passive protection, and post-incident management. These strategies must be considered at the design stage and then implemented at the system and facility levels.

6.1 Early detection and smart systems

Early detection is an essential first line of defense. Traditional systems based on measuring voltage, current, and temperature via the Battery Management System (BMS) have limitations, as thermal runaway can occur without any significant electrical warning signs. To overcome these shortcomings, modern solutions incorporate multi-parameter sensors that measure critical indicators: local temperature, pressure, concentration of precursor...
