锂离子电池由于其较高的能量密度以及会发生热失控而引起火灾的高风险，日益引起海运业的关注。此类事故对船舶、环境、货物和船员可能造成严重损害。
业内还认识到锂离子电池作为货物或各种商品中的组件进行运输的风险也有所增加。
“货物事故通知系统”（CINS）由供应链中的各利益相关方组成，包括国际保赔协会集团（IG协会）、国际货物装卸协调协会（ICHCA）、船东、联运保赔协会（TT Club）和其他行业专家，现已经制定了一份指南，以指明集装箱运输锂离子电池相关的风险。

CINS – Lithium-Ion Batteries in Containers Guidelines
Lithium-ion batteries are a growing cause for concern to the marine industry due to their high energy densities and pose a high risk of fire due to thermal runaway. The consequences of such an event can be severe resulting in serious damage to ship, environment, cargo and crew.
The industry has also recognised the enhanced risk from the carriage of lithium-ion batteries as cargo or as components within a wide range of consumer products.
The CINS network consisting of various stakeholders in the supply chain, including the International Group of P&I Clubs, International Cargo Handling Coordination Association (ICHCA), Shipowners, TT Club and other Maritime Industry’s experts have produced a helpful Guideline to address the risks associated with the carriage of Lithium-ion batteries in containers.
