The term “lithium battery” typically refers to the family of batteries that can be divided into two main categories: Primary: The primary category includes lithium metal, non-rechargeable batteries with a coin or cylindrical shape.These batteries have a higher specific energy, less weight, and longer shelf life than other batteries.
Despite the extensive safety measures and regulations in place, the inherent risks associated with lithium-ion batteries cannot be ignored. The most significant danger comes from the potential for thermal runaway, a process where a battery''s internal temperature increases uncontrollably, causing the battery to overheat and, in extreme cases, catch fire or explode.
That code, like the International Building Code (IBC) 2024 and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 855, provides updated guidelines for the safe storage of lithium-ion batteries. But unfortunately, these updated guidelines – although helpful – do not fully address all the questions facility managers may have.

Risks of lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries can pose health and safety risks that need to be managed effectively. Fire and explosion hazard. Lithium-ion batteries have the potential to catch fire or explode if not handled, stored, or charged correctly. This can result in property damage, injuries, and even fatalities. Chemical exposure
Damaged or defective lithium batteries must be removed immediately from storage and production areas and temporarily stored at a safe distance or in a fire protection area until disposal. Only cells and batteries for which proof of testing according to UN 38.3 is available may be stored (prototypes may be stored in exceptional cases and only
The Inherent Risks of Lithium-Ion Batteries Fire and Explosion Hazards. One of the most critical safety warnings associated with lithium-ion batteries is their susceptibility to fire and explosion.The batteries contain flammable electrolyte materials, which, when exposed to high temperatures, physical damage, or manufacturing defects, can lead to thermal runaway.

Lithium batteries are generally safe and unlikely to fail, but only so long as there are no defects and the batteries are not damaged. When lithium batteries fail to operate safely or are damaged, they may present a fire and/or explosion hazard. Damage from improper use, storage, or charging may also cause lithium batteries to fail.
While there is not a specific OSHA standard for lithium-ion batteries, many of the OSHA general industry standards may apply, as well as the General Duty Clause (Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970). These include, but are not limited to the following standards:
Best working temperatures are between 15°C and 35°C. Proper lithium-ion batteries storage is critical for maintaining an optimum battery performance and reducing the risk of fire and/or explosion. Many recent accidents regarding lithium-ion battery fires have been connected to inadequate storage area or conditions.
