Italian explosion energy storage bms

Why are battery energy storage systems not being developed in Italy?

The development of Battery Energy Storage Systems (hereinafter “BESS”) in Italy has been limited by the fact that the spread of renewable sources is not such as to produce significant price differences during the hours of the day yet. An unfavourable legal and regulatory framework has also contributed to the low diffusion of BESS.

What are the risks of a lithium-ion battery energy storage system?

The potential dangers of lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS) can generally be classified into several categories, namely fire and explosion risks, chemical risks, electrical risks, stranded energy risks, and physical risks.

How is Bess used in Italy?

How BESS are used Currently, the main possible sources of revenues for BESS in Italy are the following: specific auctions and the capacity market (BESS facilities participated in the 2022, 2023 and 2024 capacity market auctions.

Are stand-alone Bess energy systems cost-effective?

According to the previous regulatory framework, stand-alone BESS were not cost-effective for energy communities. Energy input from stand-alone BESS is not considered renewable and consumption was not considered withdrawal, but negative input.

Should Bess be a stand-alone energy source?

One aspect is important to highlight: although stand-alone BESS will be immediately adjacent to renewable energy plants (preferably in the same area), the energy fed into the grid by standalone BESS will not benefit from guarantees of origin or be considered green. c) Renewable Energy Communities (CERs) and collective self-consumption.

How to mitigate hazards in lithium-ion Bess?

When addressing the mitigation of hazards in lithium-ion BESS, it is crucial to carefully consider the formulation of protection objectives and the creation of holistic mitigation approaches that encompass prevention, impact management, and exposure management.
