Wonder if you could design the battery to be ejectable - you'd want some way to get them in and out anyway. In the event of a fire just dump it overboard. I guess the usual problems apply, you can't eject underwater without a pressurised system (now we have a torpedo launcher) and you can't eject over the waterline because you want the battery low for center of mass/center of bouyancy. Kinda funny image though "Launch Ze Batteries!"
