The newly established electric vehicle fire prevention system is designed to detect risk signs in real time, such as unexpected heat generation, smoke, or abnormal battery signals during charging. It immediately notifies administrators in the event of an abnormal situation and features an automatic power shutoff function.

This system is highly regarded for significantly enhancing safety by preventing the possibility of fire in advance and securing the critical initial response time.

Shin Yangmoon, Head of the Environmental Division at Pyeongchang County, stated, "While electric vehicles are environmentally friendly, unexpected risks can occur during the charging process. Therefore, we prioritized the safety of residents and staff in deciding to introduce this system. We expect that the establishment of this fire prevention system will further elevate the level of safety infrastructure in Pyeongchang County."
