Implementation of an Electric Vehicle fire scenario in the Fire Impact Tool

Cheval, Valentin LU (2023) In TVBB
Abstract
The Fire Impact Tool uses Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA) methods to assess the local and global environmental impact of the response of the Fire and Rescue Services (FRS) to enclosure fires and vehicle fires. The tool provides examples of fires and allows responder to compare the impact of different extinguishment techniques.
This report presents the methodology used to implement a new fire scenario to the tool: an Electric Vehicle (EV) fire. Same data as for the existing vehicle scenario had to be found and implemented in the new version of the tool, and some modifications or corrections were made
