About the EV FireSafe research project
EV FireSafe is a research project aiming to identify the risks to emergency responders when attending an electric vehicle (EV) lithium traction battery fire, particularly where that vehicle is connected to energised charging. We are proudly funded by the Australian Department of Defence, with assistance from Deakin University. See more or get in touch at evfiresafe.com
