Revolutionizing EV Safety: The Role of IoT and AI in Preventing Battery Fires
Introduction Electric Vehicles (EVs) are heralded as the future of transportation, aligning with global sustainability goals. Despite their promise, EV adoption faces a significant challenge: the safety of battery systems. Reports of battery fires, often caused by thermal runaways, have raised concerns among consumers and regulators. While traditional safety mechanisms like fuses and thermal cutoffs offer basic protection, they fall short of providing predictive and preventive solutions. Enter the transformative potential of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) . These technologies enable real-time monitoring, intelligent diagnostics, and proactive risk mitigation, addressing the safety concerns that could otherwise slow the EV revolution. National and International Market Overview Global Trends Adoption Rates: The global EV market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 24.5% from 2023 to 2030, with the EU, China, and the US leading the charge.
