# Lithium-Ion Battery Fires-Addressing Initiatives Full Circle Lithium Partners with US Fire Pump By Kalin Ned | Published 2025-03-27 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lithiumion-battery-fires References: [newswire](https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/full-circle-lithium-and-us-fire-pump-partner-on-specialty-response-vehicles-to-extinguish-lithium-ion-battery-fires-856058174.html)  Full Circle Lithium and US Fire Pump are developing specialized emergency response vehicles that are designed specifically for lithium-ion battery fires. The autos are equipped with FCL’s proprietary FCL-X™ fire-extinguishing agent. The collaboration has produced two solutions — the Lithium Response Vehicle (LRV) and Lithium Response Trailer (LRT), both engineered to rapidly suppress battery-related fires in commercial, industrial, and municipal settings. These systems were successfully tested in a live demonstration at a major automotive facility, where they extinguished an electric vehicle fire and two battery fires using FCL-X™ ProMAX, a high-performance variant of the agent. The LRV and LRT feature large-capacity booster tanks, independent pumping systems, and versatile discharge options. With the use of electric vehicles growing, a collaboration that improves emergency response for lithium-ion battery fires is paramount.
