BESS thermal runaway behaves very differently once flames appear, according to a Journal of Energy Storage paper that ran two full scale cabinet tests under identical triggering conditions, one that flamed and one that did not. The work went online on 20 October 2026 in volume 183 (DOI 10.1016/j.est.2026.125130) and measured temperature, radiant heat flux, heat release rate, total heat release, gas concentrations and flame evolution. BESS thermal runaway without flames In the non flaming test only four cells went into thermal runaway, and the event stayed localised along a single propagation chain. The cabinet absorbed the failure without the…

HyTEGAM, a new agent based model of a tradable hydrogen market, shows the modelled hydrogen price falling from €5.30 to €2.88 per kilogram as the market moves from pilot to maturity, according to a paper in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. The study, by Jawaria Bint Faheem and James G. Carton, went online on 19 October 2026 as part of volume 285 (DOI 10.1016/j.ijhydene.2026.157812). The figures are model outputs, not observed market prices. How the HyTEGAM model is built HyTEGAM represents six autonomous market agents plus a non strategic hydrogen infrastructure operator, which the authors call the HIO. The…
