Energy hazard knowledge is one of the biggest training gaps for our first responders. Nothing exposed this problem more than lithium-ion battery fires, but don’t be fooled: Lithium-ion battery fires are only one piece of a much larger “Energy Battleship.” Learn how to quickly recognize these energy hazards and strengthen your risk tolerance. Topics include working with the energy providers, solar/PV arrays, substations, switchgear spaces, vaults/utility spaces, transformers/rectifiers, lithium-ion cell types and use platforms, AC vs. DC, overhead and underground electrical, voltage-rated tools and PPE, offensive and defensive tactics, and conducting an energy hazard size-up.
