The Risk No One Is Talking About
EV adoption is rising across Canada, but incident response doctrine has not caught up.
​
There is no unified national approach for what happens once an EV fire is suppressed. No consistent framework for storage and monitoring of damaged batteries. No agreed standard for containment. No common language between fire services, tow operators, insurers, and municipalities about what “safe” actually means afterward.
​
Fire is only the opening chapter. The greater risk often begins once the flames are out.
​
Organizations are being asked to make high consequence decisions without playbooks, without shared terminology, and without institutional guidance.
​
EV Fire Company exists to close that gap for Canadian conditions.
WHAT FALLS THROUGH THE CRACKS
When doctrine does not exist, consequences do.
​
First responders face exposure to toxic byproducts and heat generated from battery failures that standard structure fire training never addressed.
​
Municipalities inherit contamination events involving runoff, soil damage, and hazardous waste without clear procedures or accountability.
​
Insurers struggle to assess risk when a compromised vehicle leaves an incident scene without any consistent evaluation standard.
​
Tow operators and storage facilities are asked to handle unstable assets with no uniform training or containment protocols.
​
None of this happens in isolation. Each failure compounds the next.
​
EV Fire risk does not end at suppression. It unfolds across systems that were never designed to carry it.
​
EV Fire Response Framework
EV Fire Company operates across three operational domains that define how EV incidents are handled in Canada.
Response Readiness and Field Operations
We prepare responders for the realities that begin after suppression.
​
Training focuses on decision-making, post-incident monitoring, re-ignition risk, and safe handling of compromised vehicles in live operating environments.
Programs are built for fire services, recovery operators, insurers, and municipal response teams.
Operational Risk and Liability Advisory
We help organizations manage EV risk in the absence of formal doctrine.
​
Support includes policy development, readiness assessments, incident planning, and insurer coordination to turn uncertainty into defensible practice.
​
This is risk engineering, not generic consulting.
Standards Development
We are developing frameworks for post-incident containment, monitoring, and movement of compromised EVs.
This includes operating models, documentation standards, and environmental handling procedures designed for Canadian climate, infrastructure, and response realities.
Work With Us
EV Fire risk is not theoretical.
​
If your organization is facing exposure related to EV incidents, delayed ignition risk, or post fire uncertainty, this is not a conversation to postpone.
We work with leaders responsible for public safety, insurance risk, and operational integrity to mitigate risk and develop policy where none yet exists.
Whether you are responding to a current incident or building readiness ahead of one, EV Fire Company provides clear guidance grounded in operational reality.
