SUMMARY:Masterclass on Fire Safety for BESS Projects
DESCRIPTION:NETRA is conducting an online Masterclass on Fire Safety for BESS Projects\, scheduled for Tuesday\, 8 September 2026\, from 10:00 AM to 5:30 PM. \nKey Highlights:\n\n8 modules and 10+ global BESS experts\nSpeakers from UL\, FSAI\, MNRE\, CEA\, BIS and container manufacturers and project developers\nDetailed CEA guidelines will be discussed\, BIS\, UL an IEC standards will be discussed\nFire suppression\, testing and detection and mitigation will be covered\n\n\nRegistration fee- \n\nNETRA Members : Free (For registration link connect with NETRA team) \nNon-members: INR 15\,000 + 2700 (GST) per delegate until 31 August 2026. \nRegistrations on or after 1 September 2026: INR 20\,000 + 3600 (GST) per delegate \nRegistration and payment link- https://forms.gle/NLwBuLSY7aL299Hv9 \nBESS fire safety is critical for India as battery storage deployment expands across renewable energy projects\, grid-scale applications\, critical infrastructure\, and commercial and industrial (C&I) facilities. While BESS enables the integration of variable renewable power\, grid balancing\, backup supply\, peak-load management\, and improved energy reliability\, failures such as thermal runaway can lead to fire\, explosion\, toxic gas release\, equipment damage\, and prolonged outages. Incidents at storage sites could also disrupt essential services\, threaten nearby communities\, damage investor and public confidence\, and increase insurance and project costs. This makes fire safety a core requirement—not an afterthought—covering safe cell and system design\, robust battery-management and thermal-management systems\, early detection of smoke\, heat and flammable gases\, appropriate suppression and ventilation\, electrical protection\, adequate separation distances\, emergency-response planning\, trained personnel\, and regular testing and independent audits. India’s emerging regulatory focus on BESS hazard detection\, suppression\, ventilation and fire-safety audits further highlights the need to embed safety throughout the project lifecycle\, from technology selection and site planning to commissioning\, operation and end-of-life management.\n\nWhat the masterclass covers\nThe programme includes eight practical\, module-based sessions on: \n\nUnderstanding BESS fire and explosion hazards\, including thermal runaway\, off-gassing\, propagation\, reignition\, and stranded energy\nHazard identification and risk assessment through HAZID\, HAZOP\, FMEA\, bow-tie analysis\, and global case studies\nKey codes and standards\, including NFPA 855\, UL 9540\, UL 9540A\, NFPA 72\, IEC 62933\, IEC 62619\, and relevant Indian requirements\nSafe BESS design and site planning\, including enclosure\, spacing\, containment\, access\, drainage\, electrical/HVAC systems\, and control-room considerations\nDetection\, alarm\, ventilation\, and explosion-protection systems\nWater-based and gaseous fire-suppression strategies\, along with testing and maintenance considerations\nEmergency response\, firefighting coordination\, incident command\, evacuation\, post-incident cooling\, and re-energization\nLifecycle safety\, commissioning\, operational monitoring\, audits\, and end-of-life/re-purposing best practices\n\n\nWho should attend \n\nThis masterclass will be particularly relevant for: \n\nBESS developers and system integrators\nEPC contractors and battery manufacturers\nRenewable-energy companies and utilities\nC&I facility managers and critical-infrastructure operators\nConsultants\, insurers\, regulators\, fire-service professionals\, and emergency responders\n\nWe encourage you to register early and nominate relevant members of your design\, engineering\, HSE\, operations\, and emergency-response teams. \nFor registration or further information\, please contact: \nDebi Prasad Dash- debi@netraglobal.org | +91 96997 19818 \nTushar Kakade- tushar@netraglobal.org | +91 94049 99270 \nWe look forward to your participation in strengthening fire-safety practices across India’s growing BESS ecosystem.
