Hydroelectric dams have the same issue. I also bet, that if one of those gigawatt lithium battery storage facilities had a fire, it would be a very bad day for people around them.
- chii 5y agothe dam water would flow away at some point, and in a few years, the area would be fixed up and re-populated. The fire at the lithium battery station would burn out after a while, and the area repopulated very soon. The nuclear waste land like Chernobyl is uninhabitable for the foreseeable future.
