| Description: | The BESS at a solar + storage facility caught fire. The South Korean government had implemented an upper limit of SOC of 90% for outdoor installations at the beginning of the year, but it was confirmed that the company had continued to operate with an upper limit of SOC of 95% as before. The cause is suspected to be battery deterioration due to overcharging or BMS error. |
