BESS thermal runaway starts at 170°C – 210°C (NMC). Spreads via conduction/convection and toxic/flammable gases. Thermal barriers slow propagation.

Thermische ontlading is een gevaarlijke kettingreactie in BESS, geactiveerd bij 170°C-210°C (NMC). Dit veroorzaakt giftige/brandbare gassen.

Utility BESS needs specialized insurance due to TR risk (HF,CO, flammable gases), grid stability liability, and capacity fade. TRP assessment is key.

BESS costs lower with maintenance, UL/IEC certification, and low TRP technology (LFP). Fire risk is key, necessitating advanced thermal monitoring.

BESS policies renew annually, requiring updated safety inspections and performance data. Premiums adjust based on claims and TRP risk (LFP vs. NMC).

BESS weather risk is driven by temp extremes (increasing TRP risk), flooding, and severe storms. IP ratings and thermal management are key for coverage.

Lithium battery insurance covers TR, fire, and defects. Insurers prefer LFP due to lower TRP risk. Fire management for toxic/flammable gases is key.

BESS BI covers lost revenue from arbitrage, capacity payments, and grid services. Exclusions include market price changes, routine maintenance, and Capacity Fade.

BESS insurance mandates property, liability, and technology coverage in 2025. Risk is driven by TRP and release of flammable and toxic gases ($\text{HF}, \text{CO}$).

BESS claims require 24-72 hr notification, full documentation (logs, data, photos), and often need specialized adjusters. Denials are common for maintenance gaps.

BESS insurance covers thermal runaway and Capacity Fade. NMC/LFP safety is assessed by TRP risk. PWI (Performance Warranty Indemnity) protects revenue.

BESS insurance excludes capacity fade, wear, maintenance, and market risks. Equipment Breakdown policies may cover losses from latent/design defects.
