Workshop Lead – John Haynes
From running Energy Transition training for
significant maritime organisations it is clear there is
an urgent need to have a better understanding of safety
for onboard and onshore energy storage systems.
The initial focus for Lithium-ion batteries has been on
the various chemistries and energy density.
It is now essential to establish a consistent approach
to identify safe battery-electric systems.
'Safety' for battery-electric vessels is not only about
high performance batteries. A systems approach considers
charging, awareness of the risk of running out of energy
at sea - along with the ability to prevent and fight fire.
