As thermal runaway and other safety incidents in BESS draw increasing concern, more rigorous and standardized safety testing is urgently needed. The open-door fire test was developed to meet this requirement—featuring four ultimate test challenges:

Conducted by UL Solutions, a globally recognized safety certification authority, and witnessed by certified U.S. fire protection engineers and customers, the test strictly adhered to UL 9540A and NFPA 855 safety standards.

Despite undergoing 15 hours of full combustion, the system structure remained intact, with no fire propagation to any of the three adjacent containers. This result validates Hithium's multi-layered passive safety architecture and thermal isolation capabilities, even under the most extreme conditions.

This achievement highlights Hithium's commitment to innovation and quality, providing valuable insights for future safety standards in the industry. Moving forward, Hithium will continue to advance safety performance through technology and global collaboration, driving the industry toward a safer and more reliable future.
