The fire spread to another battery, resulting in two Megapacks in the installation being destroyed. This resulted in heating of the battery module’s lithium-ion cells that led to a propagating thermal runaway event and the fire,” the report read. Wind speeds at the time also contributed to the spread of the blaze. .
