General Motors has established a new EV First Responder Training program that will ensure emergency services personnel can properly handle incidents with electric vehicles.and provides information about battery electric vehicle technology while also dispelling misconceptions and teaching important practices for dealing with electric and hybrid vehicles. One example is the importance of using a large volume of water to suppress a lithium-ion battery fire.
“This training offers unique material and hands-on experiences that can help increase responders’ awareness of procedures to help maintain safety while interacting with EVs during the performance of their duties,” GM global product safety and systems engineer Joe McLaine told the Detroit Free Press. GM spokesman Stuart Fowle noted that first responders will be taught the best practices of getting water to the heat source of a battery.
