Session Three: The safety issues around batteries and what can be done to mitigate them

• Why are batteries dangerous? Identifying the different safety risks when designing, developing and operating a battery
• What international technical standards must batteries comply with?
• How to minimise the different types of electrical and mechanical risks to the end user and environment
• Understanding which fire suppression systems to deploy
• Group Exercise : outline the key safety measures to put in place to reduce the costs of insurance and risk of litigation

Learning outcome: What battery operators need to know about operating batteries safely
 

Session Four: The business model for long-duration energy storage

• What is the potential for long-duration energy storage? What are the emerging applications that are likely to see the biggest uptake?
• Taking a step-by-step approach on how to select the most appropriate technology for long-duration storage – will current technologies be sufficient or will alternatives need to be considered?
• Analysing projects that are currently at pilot stage and their cost effectiveness
• Group Exercise : how to evaluate the business case for hydrogen as a long-term energy storage solution in terms of reliability and resilience

Learning outcome: to understand the business case for long-duration energy storage

If you want to know more about this and other topics directly from end users of energy storage technologies join us at one of these annual events: The Energy Storage World Forum (Grid Scale Applications), or The Residential Energy Storage Forum, or one of our Training Courses.
