New developments in battery safety for large-scale systems

Abstract Battery safety is a multidisciplinary field that involves addressing challenges at the individual component level, cell as well system level. These concerns are magnified when large, high-energy battery systems for grid-scale, electric vehicle, and aviation applications. This article seeks to introduce common concepts in technical of large rechargeable systems. Lithium-ion batteries represent most significant technology with well-known concerns. Because this, particular attention paid specific these batteries. An introduction system-level issues may cause problems larger given. Finally, brief summary gaps emergent technologies provided. As effort new goes toward improving performance, there understanding performance
