This article aims to answer some common questions of public concern regarding battery safety issues in an easy-to-understand context. The issues addressed include (1) electric vehicle accidents, (2) lithium-ion battery safety, (3) existing safety technology, and (4) solid-state batteries.
The more significant influence of charging/discharging rate on the battery safety at low pressure may attribute to the lower external pressure which facilitated the open of the safety valve and the oxidation of electrolytes.
The external environment (which controls the temperature, voltage, and electrochemical reactions) is the leading cause of internal disturbances in batteries . Thus, the environment in which the battery operates also plays a significant role in battery safety.
This makes it difficult for LIBs to rise to the appropriate temperature range when they are stored in low-temperature environment for a long time in cold regions or seasons, which brings a lot of uncertainty to the life and safe use of the battery.
To reduce the safety risk associated with large battery systems, it is imperative to consider and test the safety at all levels, from the cell level through module and battery level and all the way to the system level, to ensure that all the safety controls of the system work as expected.
Hazardous conditions due to low-temperature charging or operation can be mitigated in large ESS battery designs by including a sensing logic that determines the temperature of the battery and provides heat to the battery and cells until it reaches a value that would be safe for charge as recommended by the battery manufacturer.
