OverviewExplosionBackgroundVictimsAftermathInvestigationReactions

The explosion occurred around 15:00 CEST at the hydroelectric power plant of Italian company Enel Green Power in Bargi, one of the five villages around Lake Suviana in the commune of Camugnano. The power plant is located about 30 metres (98 ft) underground. The prefect of Bologna, Attilio Visconti, said the explosion originated from a turbine located eight levels down and resulted in a fire, and the floor below it flooded. Enel Green Power said there was no damage to the dam''s st

How Do Containers Meet Explosion-Proof Standards?

These containers, known as explosion-proof containers, play a vital role in minimizing the risks associated with the handling of dangerous goods. What Are Explosion-Proof Containers? Explosion-proof containers are specially designed for the transportation and storage of hazardous materials.

Failure Event

The containers were not interconnected to the grid. The fire department consulted with the operator and opened the container, resulting in an explosion. Two firefighters were injured. The container was cooled and moved away from the surrounding containers with a crane to prevent propagation. The fire was extinguished in 10 hours.
