A fire protection system in energy storage is a safety solution designed to detect, suppress, and prevent fire hazards within battery energy storage systems (BESS). It ensures safety of both equipment and personnel by responding quickly to thermal runaway or short circuit events.

Typical components include temperature and smoke detectors, gas or aerosol fire suppression agents (such as Novec 1230 or FM-200), flame retardant enclosures, thermal insulation, and emergency shut-off systems. Some systems also integrate with EMS for real-time alerts.

Lithium-ion batteries carry a risk of thermal runaway, especially in high-density systems. A fire protection system minimizes this risk by detecting abnormal heat early and suppressing fires before they escalate, thus protecting the system and surrounding environment.
