Hazelwood Battery Energy Storage System is a Historic Milestone in Australia’s Energy Transition

Jointly funded and developed by ENGIE and Eku Energy, the 150 MW/150 MWh Hazelwood project is Australia’s largest privately funded utility-scale battery. Fluence supplies, operates, and maintains the facility and it is the first project in Australia to use Fluence’s Gridstack product to provide secure and reliable energy in Victoria and support the energy transition.

Going Beyond Industry Standard Thermal Runaway Testing

The Fluence Beyond Industry Standards Burn Test went beyond the standard UL 9540A test methodology of single-cell initiation in order to successfully create the conditions necessary to test the safety of the enclosure. The test intentionally created an extreme thermal runaway event and demonstrated that the Fluence Cube design can contain thermal runaway and fire from propagating from the initiating Cube to neighboring Cubes.

On the Full Potential blog, we discuss why large-scale fire testing is needed for battery energy storage safety with Paul Hayes, Fire Protection Engineer and General Manager at American Fire Technologies, and Eli Bashevkin, Principal Engineer at Fluence.

This test will help define safety standards moving forward.

Few companies understand how battery storage systems will perform under a large-scale failure and how to help protect first responders during such an event. Fluence has taken a significant step forward by performing a full large scale installation level fire and explosion test.
