EV Safer
Charging System
Globally, there is a wide and confusing array of guidance for EV charging sites in buildings.
To help EV charging site owners better understand and reduce their fire risk, we've developed the EV Safer Charging System. The EV SCS is built from real-world cases, global data, and all the regulations, standards and guidance we can find, wrapped up into a series of simple steps, checklists and resources designed to help build safer EV charging sites and consider EV battery fire risk from the get-go.
The EV SCS is at evfiresafe.training and you can also download our free EV Charging Site Safety Poster here
Who is EV FireSafe?
We are a private company researching EV battery fires and emergency response with funding from the Australian Department of Defence. With this funding, we have developed the world's only detailed and verified global database of battery fires in cars, buses and trucks, as well as specialist EVs in aviation, mining, military and airports.
While our database is not publicly viewable, we freely share our global knowledge with the aim of enhancing safety for everyone working around EVs, with a focus on emergency responders. This website is the home of our foundational knowledge, and we host specialist training in EV emergency response, fire investigation and safer EV charging at evfiresafe.training
Our expert team of firefighters and emergency specialists also consult across all sectors electrifying their fleet to support a safer transition to EVs.
