Life Cycle Assessment of Environmental and Health Impacts of Flow Battery Energy Storage Production and Use is the final report for the A Comparative, Comprehensive Life Cycle
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) stabilize the electrical grid, ensuring a steady flow of power to homes and businesses regardless of fluctuations from varied energy sources or other disruptions. However, fires at some BESS installations have caused concern in communities considering BESS as a method to support their grids.
The purpose of this engagement is to provide the AEC with informed guidance material associated with grid-scale (or commonly referred to as large-scale) battery energy storage facilities which will aim to capture the hazards and risks associated with the life cycle of a BESS facility.
