Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are rapidly expanding to support grid stability and renewable energy adoption. However, thermal management challenges and fire risks remain key obstacles to safe, efficient deployment.
This webinar explores how Siemens' advanced simulation and design tools help accelerate the development of BESS by optimizing thermal management, cooling systems and electrical connections. Learn about groundbreaking fire detection and suppression technologies, including aspirating particle detection that identifies Li-ion battery fires over 30 minutes before thermal runaway — enabling proactive risk mitigation.
