Horizon EV Fire Safety in Confined Spaces
Funds one €8M project to prevent, detect and contain electric-vehicle fires in garages, depots, ferryboats and other confined spaces.
Horizon EV Fire Safety in Confined Spaces is a European Commission call that funds one €8M project to prevent, detect and contain electric-vehicle fires in garages, depots, ferryboats and other confined spaces. Electric-vehicle fire risk is generally lower than the risk from internal-combustion vehicles, but battery thermal runaway and the difficulty of intervention in confined areas can still con…
Developing and demonstrating affordable EV fire-safety systems for underground and built-in parking, garages, ferryboats and depots, with and without charging and during mono- or bidirectional charging. Projects should build European accident data, improve onboard diagnosis and early warning, mitigate battery thermal runaway, demonstrate detection, prevention, suppression and containment, create interoperable firefighting protocols, include SSH and public information, and reach TRL 6.
