AHLA and HTNG launch new safety resources to address lithium battery fire risks

With the growing use of lithium-based batteries in devices like e-bikes, laptops, and mobile phones, the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) and Hospitality Technology Next Generation (HTNG) launched a new suite of safety resources to help hoteliers prevent, prepare for, and respond to battery-related fire incidents, many of which are caused unknowingly by guests. The toolkit also includes guidance for travelers to help increase their awareness of potential risks.
