According to NFPA, an annual average of 770 home structure fires began with decorations between 2014 and 2019, resulting in one civilian fire death, 26 civilian fire injuries and $13 million in direct property damage. More than two of every five (44 percent) of these fires occurred because the decorations were too close to a heat source, such as a candle or hot equipment.

BESS fire and explosion in Northern Germany earlier this week - two firefighters injured. Knowledge of how to handle such fires should be a high priority for fire brigades. A curious point from a news article is that the police has estimated the losses to be 500 000 Euros - since when did the police become loss adjustors? #bess #fire #firefighting #safetyatwork #future #sustainability #repowereu #greendeal #greentransition #riskmanagement

Senior Risk Engineer HDI Risk Consulting bei HDI Global SE - Global Risk Managment, local Risk Engineering.
A basic rule for fire protection was not considered: fire separation respectively adequate space separation. Also Standards not considered such as VdS, NFPA855 or FM. A bit strange how close dwellings are and that fire fighting seems not adequately address the way lithium batteries burn. BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) are booming everywhere. No problem as long as fire protection is well addressed considering process safety such as adequate BMS (Battery Management Systems), State-of-the-art intelligent battery monitoring systems such as those from ACCURE (a partner of HDI) and adequate active & passive fire protection plus adequate fire fighting. HDI consults, informs and supports our clients with adequate risk engineering advice and tailored concepts. Thanks Grunde for that video.
