High Energy Storage Systems

Paragon is working with the U.S. Navy to design, build, and test the Coating High Integrity Material Energetic Release Attenuation (CHIMERA) thermal protection system. CHIMERA is a modular, scalable storage solution which is lightweight and compact, tolerant of high temperature, and can withstand high levels of released energy resulting from a lithium ion battery casualty while mitigating cascade failures. CHIMERA will increase mission capability and enhance safety by providing a tailorable battery storage capability for the Navy to reduce risk to Navy ships, submarines, and personnel as well as other applications.
