Lithium-Ion Battery Consumer Safety

Science, Strategies, and Standards

October 14, 2020

 

Lithium-ion battery (LIB) technologies and applications are rapidly evolving with expanding uses by consumers – from cell phone and medical devices to electric vehicles and stationary solar storage, to name a few. Fires or explosions caused by these batteries are uncommon, but the consequences can be devastating. Designing LIB safety is difficult but not impossible. Scientific findings from pre- and post-investigations can help guide safety standards.

 

Cambridge EnerTech’s Lithium-Ion Battery Consumer Safety conference convenes forensic scientists, fire-safety investigators, regulatory authorities, OEMs, and battery manufacturers to facilitate dynamic discussions of integrating LIBs safely into our mobile society.

 

Coverage will include, but is not limited to:

 

  • Manufacturing compliance and testing
  • National and international organizations and standards
  • Product safety test standards
  • Packaging
  • Consumer education
  • Normal use vs. abuse
  • Forensic analysis
  • Post-incident investigation
  • Building codes
  • Personnel training
  • Re-use

The deadline for priority consideration is April 3, 2020.

 

All proposals are subject to review by session chairpeople and/or the Scientific Advisory Committee to ensure the overall quality of the conference program. Additionally, as per Cambridge EnerTech’s policy, a select number of vendors and consultants who provide products and services will be offered opportunities for podium presentation slots based on a variety of Corporate Sponsorships.
