NIPV 18th International Fire Safety & Science Congress

At the NIPV International Fire Safety & Science Congress, experts from across the globe will present the latest results, insights, and developments in the field of fire safety research, fire safety engineering, and innovative fire fighting.

As fire safety practitioners, there's a lack of control over transportation product design and quality; Therefore, we must identify battery fire hazard characteristics to enable mitigations around these products. Principal Research Engineer Adam Barowy will present methods for fighting electric vehicle fires and reducing risks associated with e-mobility fires in passenger rail transit. Additionally, Barowy will provide insights on recent research on the hazards associated with transporting damaged, defective, and recalled (DDR) lithium-ion batteries.

Date: June 25
Time: 9:35 - 10:25 AM CEST
Session Title: From Evidence to Action: UL Research on Lithium‑Ion Battery Hazards and Mitigation in Transportation Applications
Speaker: Adam Barowy
