Successfully verified within the scope of the Bundeswirtschaftsprojekt (German Federal Economics Project). Li-ion batteries are quickly and harmlessly extinguished – verification within the scope of the SPEISI national project for the use of stationary energy storage systems (ESS).
DryCloud is a development and patent belonging to Envites Energy, a medium-sized company from Nordhausen am Harztor. Using especially a neutraliser and dry foam, EV (electric vehicle) Li-Ion batteries for electric mobility can be quickly extinguished.

Furthermore, possible hazardous substance emissions are neutralised and propagation, a feared subsequent reaction, can also be specifically suppressed.
“The system is also environmentally friendly; it makes significant savings on resources and prevents the occurrence of environmental hazards” says Tim Schäfer from Envites Energy to nnz-online.
“This is extremely important for lithium batteries due to their high fire loads, hazardous heat emissions, jet flames and massive, corrosive and re-ignitable smoke development,” he adds.
The DryCloud fire protection system is also ideal for stationary storage systems and other constructions. In particular, special and modular solutions are already available for storage and transportation. The fire protection system has been further developed and planned together with the Berlin extinguishing systems specialist engineer, Knopf.
Many experts have already been convinced by the efficiency and performance ability of DryCloud, most recently representatives of the German Fire Service Association (Deutschen Feuerwehrverband) and the Berlin Fire Service (Berliner Feuerwehr).
