STATEMENT OF WORK FOR

Accelerated rate calorimeter system for battery electric vehicle safety assessment

SECTION 1 – BACKGROUND

Most underground mining operations use diesel-powered trackless mobile machines (vehicles). Mining vehicle manufacturers are quickly developing battery electric vehicles (BEVs) powered by lithium ion batteries to replace diesel powered vehicles in underground mining operations. The benefits of employing BEVs are arguably greater for mining than any other industry. The noise, heat, and odor generated from diesel engines negatively affect the underground work environment. Diesel emissions (carbon monoxide and dioxide, nitrogen and sulfur oxides, hydrocarbons, and particulates) pose a health hazard and have recently been classified as “Group 1: carcinogenic to humans” by the World Health Organization (International Agency for Research on Cancer, 2012). At the same time, the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (2012) has reduced the NO2 threshold limit value from diesel engines from 3 to 0.2 mL/m3. Protecting workers underground from diesel emissions requires expensive (capital, operating, and maintenance costs) and electricity-consuming ventilation and cooling infrastructure, and other measures, such as diesel particulate filters and diesel oxidization catalysts.

It is necessary to understand the potential for fire or explosion in BEVs themselves, the potential to ignite ambient flammable atmosphere in gassy mines, and the rescue-ability of personnel. The adoption of BEVs can reduce the potential for fire by minimizing or removing diesel fuel from underground and hot engine sources of ignition.

However, there are unique issues associated with fighting a fire on a BEV, which should be identified to protect mine rescue personnel from harm. Depending on the battery chemistry, uncommon gases could be released into the general atmosphere during normal operation, charging, and fire that must be recognized. A high-temperature condition in the battery itself typically results from an external heat source or the voltage and/or current being out of the operating range. Temperatures exceeding 80°C can positively feedback to cause thermal runaway—exothermic reactions within the battery—which can ultimately lead to venting of hazardous and flammable gases, venting of flame, and potential explosion of the battery.

SECTION 2 – PURPOSE

The purpose of this acquisition is to support a government study to assess the ability of explosion proof (XP) enclosures to contain a pressurized Li-ion battery thermal runaway event. Another purpose is to support the study of lithium ion battery powered mining equipment fires to determine the appropriate fire suppression agents/systems and for developing guidelines for emergency response planning and management. An accelerated rate calorimeter (ARC) system will be used to study Li-ion battery thermal runaway heat release rates and pressures as a function of confinement within sealed enclosures used to house the battery. The research will employ ARC testing methods with various ignition chamber sizes and Li-ion cell chemistries. ARC tests with ambient methane-air atmospheres will be conducted to address over pressure hazards specific to gassy underground mines. The potential for ambient explosive atmospheres is a unique characteristic of the Li-ion battery hazard in gassy mines.

As used herein, technical directions are directions to the Contractor which fill in details, suggests possible lines of inquiry, or otherwise completes the general scope of work set forth herein.

No technical direction, nor its fulfillment, shall alter or abrogate the rights and obligations fixed in this contract.

CDC42.0002 Evaluation of Contractor Performance Utilizing CPARS (Apr 2013)

In accordance with FAR 42.15, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will review and evaluate contract performance. FAR 42.1502 and 42.1503 requires agencies to prepare evaluations of contractor performance and submit them to the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS). The CDC utilizes the Department of Defense (DOD) web-based Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to prepare and report these contractor performance evaluations. All information contained in these assessments may be

13 | P a g e used by the Government, within the limitations of FAR 42.15, for future source selections in accordance with FAR

15.304 where past performance is an evaluation factor.

The CPARS system requires a contractor representative to be assigned so that the contractor has appropriate input into the performance evaluation process. The CPARS contractor representative will be given access to CPARS and will be given the opportunity to concur or not-concur with performance evaluations before the evaluations are complete. The CPARS contractor representative will also have the opportunity to add comments to performance evaluations.

The assessment is not subject to the Disputes clause of the contract, nor is it subject to appeal beyond the review and comment procedures described in the guides on the CPARS website. Refer to: www.cpars.gov for details and additional information related to CPARS, CPARS user access, how contract performance assessments are conducted, and how Contractors participate. Access and training for all persons responsible for the preparation and review of performance assessments is also available at the CPARS website.

The contractor must provide the CDC contracting office with the name, e-mail address, and phone number of their designated CPARS representative who will be responsible for logging into CPARS and reviewing and commenting on performance evaluations. The contractor must maintain a current representative to serve as the contractor representative in CPARS. It is the contractor’s responsibility to notify the CDC contracting office, in writing (letter or email), when their CPARS representative information needs to be changed or updated. Failure to maintain current CPARS contractor representative information will result in the loss of an opportunity to review and comment on performance evaluations.
