It used to be hydrogen when charging lead acid batteries, for example. NiMH also produces hydrogen once they are full, but that is internally converted back to water via a catalyst (hence they can be charged at 1/10 forever with only getting warm).

Not sure which chemistry would produce hydrogen during a thermal runaway event.
