Fire chief: E-bike blazes happening ‘every other day' in London
Croydon Advertiser
|April 25, 2025
FIRES are being caused by e-bikes or e-scooters in London “every other day”, a fire chief has warned after a blaze left 11 people needing hospital treatment.
London Fire Brigade (LFB) chiefs believe the fire at a block of flats in Bethnal Green, east London, earlier this month was caused by the failure of a lithium-ion battery.
in the wake of the latest blaze, Richard Field, deputy assistant commissioner for prevention and protection at LFB, said e-bikes and e-scooters are one of the capital's “fastest-growing fire risks".
He said: “Since 2023, we have seen a fire, on average, every other day and these fires are ferocious, producing extremely toxic smoke.”
