.. assuming that the laptop batteries tested in the paper are a suitable comparison. Tesla’s cells are at least similar LFP chemistry these days, and the documentation [0] lists the same gases in the case of a fire. But this is not an enclosed space - it’s a fenced-off high voltage switchyard in a paddock more than a kilometre from the nearest dwelling, and this battery hasn’t instantaneously emitted all its contents all at once. It’s also quite a windy and rainy week, which affects how serious a practical hazard this is. The emergency services have notified [1] people within 10km to keep the windows closed nevertheless. Many more of good people of Geelong have a gigantic oil refinery on their doorstep[2], which is a far greater concern if you want to get exercised about HF-related accidents[3].
