Fire broke out in the optical storage project in Corsica of France

Recently there is a fire broke out in the optical storage project in Corsica of France, fortunately, there were no casualties.

It is said that dated June 3 of 2022, a photovoltaic power plant in a small village called “Poggio-Di-Nazza” got fire, it happened inside a energy storage container which is full with lithium-ion batteries.

The power plant is belching out thick smoke, the fire spread rapidly and last almost for one day, the local government have asked people not to move around, avoid going out near this area, and do not exercise in this surrounding area.

Ghisonaccia Rescue Center has strengthened peripheral surveillance, Ensuring the safety of people’s lives.

According to incomplete statistics of China’s energy storage network, This is the 17th energy storage fire event all over the world in 2022.

Furthermore, in this year, there are some other similar fire in the energy storage fields, we have count them out and list out below:
