    So EV's do catch fire, just 100 times less than traditional ICE cars. The fire brigade should be prepared.

    Firefighters in New South Wales will need to complete compulsory training on electric vehicles amid a boom in their sales and a spate of lithium battery fires across the state.

    The state recorded four lithium battery fires in a single day on Friday, with emergency services responding to blazes in Bankstown, Silverwater, Lake Macquarie and Berkeley. The deaths of two people in a house fire in Lake Macquarie in February were believed to be the first fatalities caused by a lithium battery fire.

    While none of those fires were in electric vehicles, the cars are powered by lithium battery technology. The state’s peak motoring body said electric vehicle fires were relatively uncommon but could be “dramatic”.
