Kurt is extremely dedicated to fire safety and keeping first responders safe, a mission we both share. His work is extremely highly regarded across the world, and especially that on the SO ready Rescue Sheet and ERG assessments. His continued dedication to to the labelling of electric vehicles is altruistic and laudable, given the increasing importance of this. His report on the Drogenbos BESS fire, one of the earliest incidents, is measured, logical and extremely informative. He is an inexhaustible source of information and always ready to help.

The "Position at the time" drop down has limited options-I have no relationship with Kurt apart from courtesy and respect.

It was a great pleasure to know and collaborate Kurt as a part of our Tertiary Safety Systems Development, specifically on the ISO ready Rescue Sheet and ERG assessments. He is passionate about the subject of safety and very open and generous with his time and knowledge specially with his experience as a firefighter to help assist in the fire-safety of our EVs.
Wishing him all the best in his endeavors!

I am very happy to collaborate with Kurt often. We also pursue the same dream from different points of view: to ensure safety and save lives. We worked together in the ISO group on tertiary safety, for the standardization of information to the fire brigade. We have an ongoing exchange of information, to ensure that FCA vehicle rescue sheets are easily understandable for firefighters. While this is my personal opinion, Kurt is a pillar of tertiary security and it is a pleasure to work with him on these challenging issues.

I had the pleasure to collaborate with Kurt Vollmacher over the last few years while chairing the SAE Hybrid and EV 1st and 2nd Responder Task Force. His passion and determination to improve the safety of responders when dealing with alternative fueled vehicles was instrumental to our task force as we published recommendations J2990, J2990/2, J3108. He was also active with ISO where again thanks to his persistence several standards were published complimenting the work of our SAE task force.

Kurt’s key traits are passion and persistence mixed with patience. Step by step was our motto. Without Kurt and his vision, we may not have many of the standards and recommendations for emergency responders that exist today. I look forward to future opportunities to collaborate with Kurt and wish him well.

I have worked together with Kurt Vollmacher on the development of the ISO 17840 standards. He is someone that never gives up until the task is accomplished.
The worldwide fire fighter community will benefit to have these standards.

Kurt Vollmacher has an in-depth knowledge in the field of alternative energy systems in transport and energy storage in structures. He is very dedicated to developing emergency response guides to help firefighters deal with the hazards likely to be encountered during fire and rescue operations. His dedication to ensuring the safe and effective response to the emerging hazards is evidence by his involvement in a wide range of local and international stake holder groups. It is excellent to see the increasing use of these technologies, as It is clear we need to move away from our reliance on fossil fuels. It is also reassuring that we have people like Kurt, who are focused on ensuring our firefighters have the education and skills required to respond safely and efficiently. Most of all I am impressed with his desire to share knowledge and to stay on the leading edge of these technologie
