Are home energy storage batteries safe?
Oct 25, 2024
With the popularity of renewable energy and the growing demand for home energy autonomy, home energy storage batteries have become the choice of more and more families. However, many consumers still have doubts about whether home energy storage batteries are safe. As a professional energy storage system manufacturer, GreenMore always puts safety at the core of product design to ensure that each home energy storage battery reaches the industry-leading level in terms of performance, stability and user protection.
Technical analysis of household energy storage battery safety
1. Safety assurance of electrochemical system
GreenMore uses highly safe lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) batteries. Compared with other types of lithium batteries, lithium iron phosphate batteries have higher thermal and chemical stability, and are less likely to experience thermal runaway even at high temperatures or under overcharge conditions, greatly reducing the risk of fire.
2. Modular design and intelligent battery management system (BMS)
Each GreenMore home energy storage battery module has a built-in high-performance battery management system (BMS) that monitors key parameters such as voltage, current, temperature, etc. in real time, and has automatic protection mechanisms, such as:Overcharge/overdischarge protection/Short circuit protection/Over temperature protection/Balanced charge and discharge control,Through the precise management of BMS, the system can effectively prevent safety hazards under abnormal operating conditions and extend battery life.
3. High protection grade housing design
GreenMore household energy storage battery adopts IP54 grade protective shell, which is dustproof and waterproof, and can be installed in various indoor and outdoor environments. The shell material is flame retardant engineering plastic, which has good fire resistance and further improves the safety of the overall system.
Comply with international standards and certifications
GreenMore household energy storage battery products have passed a number of international authoritative certifications, such as:
CE certification (EU electrical safety standards)
UL certification (US safety laboratory standards)
IEC 62660 / IEC 62933 series of standards (International Electrotechnical Commission energy storage equipment standards)
UN38.3 test (applicable to transportation safety)
These certifications are not only a guarantee of product quality, but also a reflection of GreenMore's commitment to user safety.
Safety during installation and use
In addition to the safety design of the product itself, correct installation and daily use are equally important. GreenMore provides the following support to ensure users can use it with peace of mind:
1. Professional installation guidance
We recommend that the installation be performed by certified technicians to ensure that the system wiring is standardized and grounded reliably to avoid malfunctions caused by improper installation.
2. Real-time remote monitoring
Through the GreenMore Energy Management App, users can check battery status, operating data and abnormal alarms at any time, and grasp potential risks at the first time.
3. Automatic power-off protection function
When a serious fault or dangerous situation is detected, the system will automatically cut off the power output to prevent the accident from escalating.
