Abstract: | Electrical energy storage (EES) systems can make the business case for renewable energy generation more appealing, ultimately paving the way to a future with a lower carbon footprint. The application of EES technology in residential buildings is relatively new. Like all new technology, the concerns around its safety hazards need to be addressed before EES systems can gain a wider public acceptance and adoption. The LIFE project at the University of Twente is an opportunity to increase the understanding of the safety hazards of multiple energy storage systems, namely a hydrogen system, lithium-ion (Li-ion) and vanadium redox flow (VRB) battery systems. This thesis analyses the associated safety hazards and proposes recommendations for delivering a safe product, especially in the operate and maintain asset lifecycle phases |
