HN Innovalley (CEO Deuk-Young Jeong) announced on the 3rd that it installed an AI-based electric vehicle fire spread prevention system in the electric vehicle charging area on the 3rd basement floor of the Hyundai Department Store headquarters building in Daechi-dong, Seoul, and held an on-site demonstration on the 30th of last month.
This unmanned system uses AI-based, complex detection to quickly detect flames, smoke, and temperature changes in the event of a fire. It then automatically releases coolant to extinguish the fire within the initial golden response time (approximately 10-15 minutes). Its unique feature is its upward-facing sprinkler nozzles, which provide concentrated cooling to the underside of electric vehicle batteries, delaying thermal runaway and minimizing the spread of fire damage.
The demonstration showcased core processes and operational scenarios for detection, automatic water discharge, and diffusion suppression, based on actual installed equipment. Attendees witnessed the applicability, operational convenience, and safety enhancements of this technology in charging zone environments.
Based on this implementation case, HN Innovalley plans to expand the scope of application of electric vehicle fire response solutions to public and corporate customers and support the advancement of safety operation processes that take into account facility environments, operational flow lines, and management systems.
CEO Jeong Deuk-yeong said, “Underground electric vehicle charging areas are at high risk of fire spreading, so an automatic detection and cooling-based initial response system is crucial.” He added, “Based on this construction case, we will expand customer-tailored safety infrastructure and strengthen integrated support, including post-installation operational inspections and improvement consulting.”
