View moreFor small lithium-ion battery fires, specialist fire extinguishers are now available, that can be applied directly to the battery cells, to provide both cooling and oxygen depletion, with the aim to control fire and reduce temperature to below the level where there is sufficient heat to re-ignite the fire.
View moreWhy do lithium-ion batteries catch fire? Lithium-ion battery cells combine a flammable electrolyte with significant stored energy, and if a lithium-ion battery cell creates more heat than it can effectively disperse, it can lead to a rapid uncontrolled release of heat energy, known as ‘thermal runaway’, that can result in a fire or explosion.
Currently, there are very limited methods of safely tackling a fire involving a lithium-ion battery because they burn at extreme temperatures. Even a small one can create “thermal runaway” where one cell ignites the next one in an unstoppable chain.
In all circumstances, only suitably trained personnel/emergency-responders should attempt to extinguish early-stage lithium-ion battery fires, when it is safe to do so. As lithium-ion battery fires create their own oxygen during thermal runaway, they are very difficult for fire and rescue services to deal with.
Currently, there are very limited methods of safely tackling a fire involving EV’s or lithium-ion batteries because they burn at extreme temperatures; even a small fire can create an effect known as “thermal runaway” where one cell ignites the next one in an unstoppable chain.
The fire and rescue service may also use specially designed car fire blankets to help control EV (electric car) car fires. Due to the difficult nature of lithium-ion battery fires, it is recommended that you do whatever you can to minimize the risk of a lithium-ion battery fire occurring, despite how rare they are.
