Are battery energy storage systems a threat to maritime safety?
12. March 2025 In recent years, demand for the maritime transportation of containerised Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) has grown significantly. However, due to the high safety risks associated with energy storage containers, their transportation poses new challenges to maritime safety.
What are the risks of energy storage systems?
Overweight risks Due to the large size and mass of energy storage systems, individual units usually weigh over 30 tons. They face higher risks of dropping, impact and vibration during loading, unloading, and transportation.
What are the risks associated with the maritime transportation of Bess?
The maritime transportation of BESS primarily involves the following risks: Lithium battery safety risks Lithium batteries, as the core component of energy storage systems, are characterized by high energy density and power output. However, their safety directly determines the overall safety of the energy storage system.
Why do we need a shipping system?
The requirement for shipping is significantly lower GHG emissions on a well-to-wake scope which is generally the case for green hydrogen, produced through electrolysis (breaking down water molecules to hydrogen and oxygen), and blue, which primarily comes from natural gas where the production plant has a carbon capture and storage system .
Estonia has laid the cornerstone for what will become the largest battery park in continental Europe, a major step toward synchronising the Baltic power grids with Europe by 2025; the project, led by Evecon, Corsica Sole and Mirova, aims to bolster energy security and support Estonia’s transition to renewable energy.

Where is Estonia's largest battery storage facility located?
The flagship battery storage project commenced operations on February 1, only days before cutting ties with the Russian power grid. Estonian state-owned energy company Eesti Energia has inaugurated the nation’s largest battery energy storage facility at the Auvere industrial complex in Ida-Viru County.
How will a battery energy storage park work in Estonia?
The battery energy storage park and its substation will be connected to the electricity transmission network using a 330kV AC underground cable, marking a first in Estonia. Baltic Storage Platform confirmed that the BESS will seek to ensure the stability and resilience of the Estonian electricity grid.
Why is energy storage important for Estonia?
Energy storage is also vital for meeting Estonia’s goal of sourcing all its electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The country’s climate minister, Yoko Alender, emphasised the role of storage systems in this transition, saying they would help ensure a “clean, reliable and affordable energy future” for Estonia.
Should Estonia invest in battery parks?
Estonia’s investment in large-scale battery parks highlights its strategic push for both energy independence and a more sustainable power grid. However, battery parks do have environmental impacts.
