Students of the Cobbenhagenlyceum in Tilburg were commissioned by Total Safety Solutions to do research on home batteries for the subject Research and Design (R&D): how do citizens think about home batteries and does this image match the reality in the field of safety? They produced a report on this and a poster promoting home batteries.
This research found that several factors deter people from using a home battery: the price, size, wear and tear, a bought or rental home, fire and explosion hazards or because people did not delve into home batteries. Research by the NFPA found that the probability of explosion is only 1 in 50,000. However, more information and education would significantly reduce the step to purchase a home battery.
