catastrophic situations caused by a battery failure.
Recognising the various challenges presented by Li-ion batteries, the topics covered in this
paper include background science on Li-ion batteries, the dangers associated with transporting
them and why they arise, battery testing and correct declaration. The paper also provides a
review of current dangerous goods (DG) regulatory provisions, focusing on the International
