Zusammenfassung:An energy storage system, comprising: at least one energy storage module adapted to supply electrical energy to a hybrid vehicle, the energy storage module comprising: a primary enclosure; at least one battery array located within the primary enclosure, the battery array having a plurality of battery cells wherein at least one of the battery cells has a battery vent for releasing battery gases into the primary enclosure; a storage module vent in the primary enclosure; and a pressure relief panel held adjacent to the storage module vent; wherein the pressure relief panel moves outward away from the storage module vent from a sealed first position to an unsealed second position when pressure inside the primary enclosure exceeds a predetermined threshold; and wherein the pressure relief panel moves inward toward the storage module vent from the unsealed second position to the sealed first position when pressure inside the primary enclosure is less than or equal to the predetermined threshold.
