A system includes a first group of sensors and a control circuit including one or more processors. The first group of sensors is associated with an energy storage module having one or more energy storage devices. The sensors in the first group generate sensor measurements representing one or more parameters of the energy storage module. The control circuit is configured to receive the sensor measurements and determine one or more of a reference value or a reference variation of a specific parameter related to the energy storage module based at least in part on the sensor measurements. The control circuit compares one or more of monitored values or monitored variations of the specific parameter, based on the sensor measurements generated by sensors, to the reference value or the reference variation of the specific parameter and detects a deviation that is greater than a designated tolerance margin.
