The Tesla battery fire in Boulder City is the second Megapack blaze in less than a month, raising urgent safety questions for large-scale energy storage. These incidents highlight the risks of lithium-ion technology and the need for safer alternatives like EticaAG’s immersion-cooled systems that prevent fires before they start.
Etica Battery’s ECO-06 racks have achieved the first-ever UL 1973 certification for immersion-cooled storage. This milestone validates compliance with North American safety standards and sets the foundation for UL 9540A testing, advancing safer, more reliable energy storage for commercial and utility applications.
The La Mesa battery project in California stalled amid safety concerns, community opposition, and transmission challenges. It’s a cautionary tale for clean energy developers—and a call for safer, smarter storage solutions that earn public trust. EticaAG’s fire-preventive immersion technology offers a path forward for siting battery systems near communities.
New York communities are calling for safer battery storage as energy projects expand statewide. This article explores the public’s concerns, explains why traditional systems fall short, and introduces EticaAG’s proven fire-prevention technology. Learn how New York can meet its clean energy goals without compromising safety, trust, or environmental responsibility. Fire risk isn’t inevitable—there’s a solution.
EticaAG President Matthew Ward has joined the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), reinforcing our commitment to safer energy storage. With our LiquidShield Immersion Technology, we stop the battery fire from ever happening. EticaAG continues to shape industry standards and lead the way in non-flammable, resilient battery energy storage systems.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is a system that stores electrical energy in rechargeable batteries and releases it when power is needed. A complete BESS typically includes battery modules, a battery management system, power conversion system, energy management system, thermal management equipment, controls, enclosure, and safety systems.
