Zero to 100. That's how quickly lithium-ion batteries can explode, igniting fast-moving, deadly fires. So far in 2026, four people have died in fires caused by lithium-ion batteries. We remind all New Yorkers of the following safety messaging: ▪️ Where possible, charge and store batteries outside. ▪️ Only use...

"Zero to 100" is the part people don't get until they've seen it once. Four deaths already this year is a number that should be everywhere, not just on a fire department feed. Thanks for keeping at it.

So far this year, 18 people have been killed by fires caused by lithium-ion batteries. These fires are dangerous and fast-moving. Just last month, the Fire Safety Research Institute produced a powerful video demonstrating why it is so difficult to escape from a fire started by a lithium-ion battery.

On June 26, an all-hands fire broke out inside a basement apartment in a private dwelling in Queens. FDNY Fire Marshals determined the cause of the fire to be a lithium-ion battery that was charging in the kitchen of the fire apartment. The fire trapped a 48-year-old man inside the home, who had to escape through a bedroom window. The victim later died at a hospital. This is the first death in 2026 connected to a lithium-ion battery fire that happened this year. Where possible, charge and store lithium-ion batteries or micromobility devices OUTSIDE. Do not charge them overnight, and do not block any exits. It can mean the difference between life and death.

My meetings with legislators to push for more regulation on lithium-ion batteries are going well. Several leaders I’ve spoken with have seen major fires caused by them in their own states. Lithium-ion battery fires are not just a New York City problem.

I don't think most people understand how quickly Redwood Materials is growing & how many batteries they're recycling. In 2024 alone, Redwood recycled 20 GWh of batteries—the equivalent of 250,000 EVs. And now they are building recycled battery energy storage systems! Redwood alone represents 90% of all lithium-ion batteries and battery materials recycling in North America.

Lithium battery fires have featured far too often in news headlines. These fires often ignite without warning, they're difficult to extinguish and are not confined to #EVs. Everything from eScooters to electric toothbrushes carries the risk for #thermal runaway and considered hazardous materials. I asked about the ACCC's report on Lithium-Ion Batteries and Consumer Product Safety during the recent senate estimates. The report advocates for a national product safety incident database to capture lithium ion battery fires. Senator Gallagher responded positively and I look forward to quick action on this problem from the Government.

When we tell you unregulated, illegal lithium-ion batteries are a hazard, WE MEAN IT. FDNY Fire Inspectors continue to check e-bike & e-scooter shops to ensure compliance, but many of devices & batteries are in private homes. They’re ticking time bombs, just watch our new PSA.

Here is some footage from working with fire today re: floods/tides. The Key PSA - FLOOD SAFETY: Keep lithium batteries (e-bikes, scooters, tools) above floodwater. Never charge or use flooded equipment, including EVs. Watch for swelling, heat, or smoke. If there's smoke or fire, evacuate and call 911. Never put damaged batteries in the trash. These batteries are exploding in people's garages.
