Thermal Event Investigation
Confidential root-cause guidance after a thermal runaway event, a fire or a field failure, for moments that need clarity, not visibility.
- A battery fire or thermal event in development, validation or the field
- An abuse test result that does not match expectations
- Repeated field failures without an agreed root cause
- Management needs a defensible technical view before deciding on containment
Included
- Battery packs, modules and cells in vehicles and light mobility
- Energy storage systems
- Inverter, high-voltage distribution and interfaces
- Development, validation and field events
Not included
- Legal or regulatory determinations
- Laboratory testing of samples
Strictly need-to-know, minimally visible, and structured to protect both technical and reputational interests.
Clear technical direction when it matters most.
Root-cause scenarios
Plausible failure mechanisms across electrical, thermal and mechanical triggers, based on system behavior.
Evidence guidance
Guidance on interpreting the evidence without contaminating the investigation.
System-level view
Reasoning across the inverter, high-voltage distribution, battery and interfaces, even when data is limited or fragmented.
Containment and next steps
Support in defining containment actions and the next technical steps.
From the first brief to a defensible conclusion.
Brief
Under NDA, we collect what is known about the event, the system and the available data.
Assess
We interpret limited or fragmented data at system level and outline the plausible root-cause scenarios.
Direct
We guide evidence interpretation and define the next technical steps with your investigation team.
Conclude
Findings are framed for management decisions on containment, design changes or operational measures.
Backed by battery pack engineering across passenger EVs, e-scooters and grid-scale ESS
