Firefighters face a growing challenge as electric vehicles (EVs) become increasingly common on roads worldwide. A recent development aims to equip first responders with crucial knowledge on how to safely handle EV battery fires. New guidance has been issued to provide firefighters with the necessary protocols and procedures to mitigate the risks associated with EV battery fires. The guidance also explores the potential benefits of fuel cells, an alternative technology that could offer improved safety and efficiency in future vehicles.
