Accordingly, under the leadership of the Disaster Prevention Testing Institute, an industry-academia-research consortium involving related companies and universities will be formed to conduct research over five years. The research includes developing an AI-based early fire detection system for ESS linked to disaster safety platforms, developing an optimal automatic extinguishing system capable of preventing thermal runaway in ESS, and developing safety technical standards for ESS.

A representative from the institute stated, "In the event of an ESS fire accident, early detection through the fire detection system and initial extinguishing through the automatic extinguishing system will be possible, significantly reducing fire damage. We expect that the technical standards will be applied not only domestically but also in overseas ESS markets, greatly contributing to the stable growth of the related industry."
