Amped Up Safety: VoltSafe’s Vision for a High Voltage Future
In today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape, batteries are no longer confined to powering small devices – they’re driving everything from electric vehicles to home energy systems. With battery power on the rise and voltages reaching new heights (even higher than electrical outlets in our homes), safety concerns have taken centre stage. High voltage batteries can store enough energy to be extremely dangerous, even fatal, if mishandled. That’s where VoltSafe Technology steps in, offering a robust, forward-thinking solution to the escalating risks.
The Rising Tide of High Voltage Batteries
Recent industry data underscores an undeniable trend: battery technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate. For example, reports from industry experts suggest that the global battery market is set to exceed $100B within the next decade. Electric vehicles now routinely operate with battery packs rated at 400 volts or more, and even consumer electronics are beginning to incorporate higher voltage systems for improved performance. We’re not just talking about cars either – these high voltage batteries are needed in a variety of transportation types from recreational watercraft, boats and ferries, forklifts, trucks, uncrewed vehicles, aircraft, trains and more.
The Dangers Lurking Behind Increased Voltage
While combustion engines have relied on ‘car batteries’ for over 100 years, they’ve never posed serious risks to humans because their exposed electrical contacts deliver 12 volts, well below the threshold of 60 volts (deemed dangerous to humans). Today, higher voltage batteries pack more energy, which translates into real and present danger. Even a brief exposure or improper handling can lead to serious electrical shock, thermal runaway, or catastrophic failures such as fires or explosions. In a world where over 50 million high voltage batteries are expected to be in use by 2030, the margin for error grows ever thinner. Recent safety assessments have noted that incidents linked to high voltage mishaps have risen significantly over the past few years, reflecting the urgent need for advanced protection measures
