A high proportion of battery problems in the USA. Is this true?
In the United States, 26% of the energy storage systems inspected had problems relating to fire detection and suppression. 18 %
are facing problems related to thermal management systems, says Clean Energy Associates (CEA) after 320 inspections and an audit of 30 GWh of lithium ion batteries. It identified more than 1,300 manufacturing problems.
The growth of the storage market is driven by lower prices due to reduced supply chain challenges and lower commodity prices.

Editor's note We never know whether these statistics (a quarter of batteries and a fifth with thermal management problems) are a translation of reality This proportion of problem situations seems very high.
