Can lithium-ion batteries be transported safely in containers?
Industry bodies have united to produce "Guidelines for safe transport of Lithium-ion batteries in containers".
What are the requirements for shipping lithium-ion batteries by sea?
Container Requirements: Containers used for shipping lithium-ion batteries by sea must meet specific IMDG Code regulations. These regulations may include requirements for proper ventilation, fire-resistant lining, and segregation from incompatible cargo to minimize risks during transport.
How do you store a lithium ion battery?
In general lithium-ion batteries should always be removed from the devices they power and stored at 60-70% of the pack’s capacity. If a battery will go unused for three more days, it should be stored in a cabinet or larger store. Once disconnected, storing lithium-ion batteries follows similar principles as the correct storage of chemicals.
