#ElectricVehicle fires resulting from thermal runaway propagation pose many challenges for first responders to control the fire and successfully manage the incident. Additionally, the risk of reignition poses challenges for secondary responders responsible for removing the vehicle from the fireground. In the latest series of experiments for the Fire Safety of Batteries and Electric Vehicles research project, FSRI researchers aim to understand what water suppression strategies firefighters can use to mitigate these hazards. Findings from this experiment phase will contribute to future tactical considerations and training resources to help enable the fire service to conduct safe and effective size-up and suppression strategies.
