BESS Failure: Study Identifies Opportunities for Battery Analytics to Prevent Incidents

There is currently no public resource that categorizes BESS incidents by cause of failure. The joint report from EPRI, PNNL & TWAICE fills this gap by analyzing aggregated failure data. Understanding how and why BESS fail is a major priority to the energy industry. Learning from failure incidents will improve prevention and mitigation measures. We have created an infographic that summarizes the key points, classifies failure events, and provides recommendations for future development.

Understanding State of Charge (SoC)

State of Charge (SoC) is one of the most important state estimations for batteries. It describes how much charge is left in your battery, which can be used, for example, to provide grid services like frequency regulation or arbitrage.
