  • Why a Surge in Battery Energy Storage System Installations is Set to Supercharge Global Infrastructure

    Despite an estimated capacity increase in the United States of a staggering 89% in 2024, according to U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), there is still more to be done to ensure this rapid rollout of these mainly Lithium-ion battery systems don’t pose a threat to workers, communities and our energy infrastructure.

  • How Apliter Termografía and FLIR Are Enhancing Volcanic Surveillance in La Palma with Cutting-Edge Gas Detection Technology

    Volcanic activity in La Palma has created a complex situation for environmental surveillance and safety. Although the eruptive phase of the Cumbre Vieja volcano finished at the end of 2021, the emission of gases, such as CO₂, remains a challenge. Since it is a colorless and odorless gas, it can build up in areas that are difficult to access. This creates risks for both the population and the research teams working on the island. The accumulation of CO₂ in low or poorly ventilated areas displaces oxygen from the air. This can cause dizziness, shortness of breath, disorientation and even loss of consciousness. In volcanic environments, where gas is concentrated in depressions in the ground or enclosed spaces, the risk is even higher. In La Palma, the lack of real-time sensors made it difficult to detect these dangerous areas, which increased the risk of accidental exposure. To improve the surveillance and monitoring of these emissions, IGN needed a solution, such as an OGI thermal imaging camera, that would provide accurate data immediately and enable rapid action.

  • Early Fire Detection for BESS

    Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are essential for storing renewable energy and ensuring grid stability. However, their implementation comes with inherent risks, particularly related to lithium-ion battery fires. Where flame detectors fall short, thermal imaging cameras can significantly improve protection and prevent fires before they ever reach combustion.

  • Understanding the EU’s Methane Mitigation Regulations: A Guide to Staying Compliant

    The EU has introduced its first-ever methane emissions regulations for the energy sector, requiring both detection and quantification of emissions. The finalised regulations (EU 2019/942) came into effect on 13 June 2024, and operators must act now to stay compliant. 

  • The Path to Zero Poaching: FLIR and WWF Donate Truck Mounted Thermal Cameras to Stop Poaching in Kenya

    World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and FLIR, partners for nearly ten years in efforts to eliminate African wildlife poaching, are once again working together to support the Kenyan Wildlife Service (KWS) and Kenyan conservancies such as Ol Pejeta Conservancy in improving wildlife security. Their most recent efforts include the donation of 13 truck-mounted thermal security cameras for nighttime patrols that can help catch poachers in the dark.

  • CA Rule 1178: Adding Technology to Fuel Tank Inspections to Reduce Emissions and Improve Air Quality

    In 2024, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), which includes all of Orange County and the urban portions of Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties in the state of California, passed comprehensive updates to California Rule 1178 (CA 1178) to further reduce volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions from organic liquid storage tanks at petroleum facilities within the district. The amended rule establishes more stringent leak detection, repair, and control requirements for storage tanks in gas refineries, bulk storage facilities, and oil production sites.
