The blaze exposed a major weakness in maritime logistics: traditional CO₂ fire suppression systems cannot control lithium‑ion battery fires, which enter “thermal runaway,” burn at extreme heat, and can reignite days later.
Experts note it can take up to 10,000 gallons of water to extinguish a single EV fire, meaning the ship’s load could theoretically require millions of gallons—enough to sink it before the flames were out.
This is at least the third major EV shipping disaster since 2022, following the Felicity Ace incident, and with no international regulations on EV transport until 2027, some shipping companies are already refusing to carry electric vehicles, raising concerns about future bottlenecks in global auto logistics.

"As EV demand trends downward, particularly following the end of the federal tax credit in September, Ford had struggled to sustain demand for its Model E line."
