"Situational awareness training for roadside responders managing electric vehicles in compromised, damaged, and defective conditions"

Heavily damaged electric vehicle

EV incidents have redefined risk across emergency and recovery services

Electric and hybrid vehicles are now operating between 800 and 1,000 volts DC. When EVs are damaged in collisions, fires, submersion or rollovers; they introduce live, unstable and delayed hazards that did not exist with petrol or diesel vehicles.​ High-speed collisions, vehicle fires, submersion, rollovers and serious impacts are nothing new to our highly trained emergency and recovery services but high voltage systems are. 

 

Our training is designed to equip frontline and roadside responders with a shared operational framework for safely managing the unique challenges presented by EV and Hybrid incidents — from first impact, arrival on scene, through incident management, recovery and final disposition.

FOUR COURSES, ONE CORE

Four courses. One operational framework for EV Incident Response

Four courses built from the same global evidence base, informed by real-world incidents, international best practice, and lessons learned across fire and emergency services, recovery operators, vehicle storage facilities, and vehicle manufacturers. 

​

Ensuring all responding agencies work to a single operational framework. Ensuring:

  • Safe, consistent and informed decision-making

  • Clear role-specific responsibilities

  • Improved coordination at the roadside and beyond

  • Safer recovery, storage and post-incident handling​

Roadside Incidents are multi-agency effort

No single agency manages an EV incident alone — safe outcomes depend on shared understanding, coordinated decision-making, and structured training. 

Fire & Rescue, Police, Ambulance, Recovery Operators and Insurers must operate from a shared understanding of risk, using consistent language, decisions and procedures across every phase of the incident.
