In recent years, with the rapid development of renewable energy, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) have become crucial for stable power supply. However, flood threats from extreme weather have raised alarms about the safety of these systems. The safety of BESS is not only about the equipment itself but also closely related to insurance companies’ risk assessments.
Insurance Risk Becomes Critical
BESS are typically installed outdoors or near water sources. In case of flooding, not only can it cause equipment damage and economic losses, but it may also lead to safety incidents such as fires. This makes the insurance risk of BESS a key focus for insurance companies.To address this, Lian Suo Building Technology has introduced FM Approved flood barriers, creating a solid flood protection shield for BESS. This effectively reduces insurance risks, ensures stable energy supply, and provides insurance companies with more reliable underwriting basis.
FM Approvals: International Safety Standard
Lian Suo Technology’s FM Approved flood barriers are designed and tested according to the stringent FM Approvals 1-40 standard, effectively resisting flood invasion. FM Approvals is one of the most authoritative loss prevention testing and certification organizations globally. Its standards are widely applied in various fields, representing product safety, reliability, and high performance.
Reducing Risk, Enhancing Protection
Choosing FM Approved flood barriers is equivalent to choosing trustworthy protection. It not only effectively reduces the risk of loss for BESS but also enhances insurance companies’ confidence in underwriting BESS, safeguarding the development of the green energy industry.
Advantages of Lian Suo Flood Barriers:
- High-strength gate panels: Adopts innovative structural design, effectively resisting deformation and providing excellent flood protection performance.
- Advanced clamping and fixing technology: Side clamping component design firmly secures gate panels, ensuring stability and reliability under flood pressure.
- Intelligent space management: During non-flood seasons, flood barrier panels can be perfectly stored in dedicated racks, saving space.
- Minimized intermediate supports: For example, widths within 4 meters perfectly fit roller shutter door scenarios without needing additional intermediate supports and diagonal braces, making installation more convenient and cost-effective.
- Quick installation and reset: Unique clamping technology and top pressure column innovation make the assembly and reset process of flood barriers easy and quick.
- Passed rigorous testing: Passed FM Approvals’ static water pressure and impact tests, demonstrating excellent performance and reliability.
Besides Battery Energy Storage Systems, Lian Suo Technology’s FM Approved flood barriers are also applicable to important facilities such as power substations and semiconductor plants, providing comprehensive flood protection solutions for various industries, enhancing industrial safety and sustainable development.
