The e-mobility market has grown dramatically, reducing cars on the road, supporting workers in the gig economy, and helping cities meet sustainability goals. Preserving the e-bike and e-scooter market means protecting against the fire risk these devices carry.

This toolkit contains assets that you can share with your audience to address safety with e-mobility devices, support legislative solutions to reduce fires, and build safer communities.

UL Standards & Engagement is a nonprofit standards development and advocacy organization that translates safety science into practical, action-oriented standards. Since 1903, we have developed nearly 1,700 standards and guidance documents in use today.

ULSE also serves as a vital resource for policymakers and shares knowledge, advances partnerships, and advocates for standards and policies to create a safer, more sustainable world.

UL Standards & Engagement has three standards that cover the e-bikes and e-scooters and the batteries that power those devices: UL 2849, the standard for e-bikes; UL 2272, for personal e-mobility devices; and UL 2271, the standard for lithium-ion batteries in e-mobility devices. These standards are designed to protect against thermal runaway and the risk of devastating fire.
