PNNL IntelliVent system reduces risk of explosions in outdoor battery cabinets
Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have developed a sensor system called IntelliVent that can prevent dangerous conditions from developing in outdoor battery cabinets.
Although energy storage systems with cabinet-type enclosures can be advantageous due to capacity, footprint and access, the cabinets leave little room for exhaust fans which would vent flammable gases that can result from failed cells and lead to explosion.
IntelliVent is a patent-pending, deflagration-prevention system for cabinet-style battery enclosures. IntelliVent is designed to open cabinet doors intelligently to vent the cabinet interior at the first sign of explosion risk. This functionality provides passive dilution of accumulated flammable gases, minimizing the potential for catastrophic explosion and reducing the risk of personnel injury.

Some good news in today from the Snohomish PUD Board of Commissioners.
The Snohomish County Public Utility District No. 1, or the “PUD,” was created on November 3, 1936.The Snohomish County PUD Board of Commissioners approved the 2021 budget for the electric system on Tuesday, including staff’s recommendation to forego a general rate increase for the fourth consecutive year.
The PUD’s residential electric rate will remain 10.4 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh) in 2021, keeping it competitive with other Northwest electric utility rates and below the national average of 12.95 cents/kWh.
“This past year has been a challenge for many of our customers and I’m glad that we’re able to deliver on our promise to bring affordable power to those we serve,” said PUD GM/CEO John Haarlow. “It’s a credit to our staff who continue to work hard to keep costs down and find new and innovative ways to operate the business more efficiently.”
