A massive cargo ship burning off the coast of the Netherlands is igniting concerns over fire risks from electric vehicles. The Dutch Coast Guard said on its blog that 23 crew members were evacuated, but one person died. But the intensity of the fire seems to have diminished compared with yesterday," the Dutch Coast Guard said, per an AFP translation. Just 25 or less than 1% of the 2,857 vehicles on board the Fremantle Highway were electric vehicles. The Dutch Coast Guard did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider.

One crew member has died and 22 others have been injured in a fire on a large cargo vessel loaded with nearly 3,000 vehicles off the Dutch island of Ameland in the North Sea, officials said on Wednesday. The fire was reported just before midnight on Tuesday and was still burning on Wednesday, the Dutch Coast Guard said. Video posted by the Coast Guard showed smoke billowing from the 656-foot vessel, as one of the many ships that responded to the fire doused it with water. Lea Versteeg, a Coast Guard spokeswoman, told The Associated Press that the cargo ship, called the Fremantle Highway, had been carrying 2,857 cars, including 25 electric cars. The cause of the fire was not known, the Coast Guard said, adding that specialists from a marine salvage company were assessing the situation, which it described as “stable at the moment.”
