Lithium batteries were identified as a fire hazard a few years ago, which forced companies making power tools with such batteries to devise ways of making them safe for transportation. Some carriers won't take any rated higher than 12v.

So did the "green lobby" factor in these hazards in the headlong rush to the mythical carbon net zero target?

It's reassuring to see that the entire crew were safe, but any salvage attempt will be hazardous to say the least.
