This regulation, officially known as \u201cBattery Regulation EU 2023\/1542,\u201d introduces numerous changes and higher standards for the sustainability, performance, and labelling of batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Battery Regulation was published on 28th July 2023, came into force on 17th August 2023, and applies to all EU member states from 18th February 2024. The aim of the regulation is to govern the entire lifecycle of batteries, from sustainable raw material extraction to disposal and recycling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you deal with batteries in your daily life? Are you a battery manufacturer or do you incorporate them into your products? If so, you need to be aware of the following important changes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sustainability and Performance<\/strong>: Batteries must meet higher standards for sustainability and performance requirements. This includes information on performance characteristics, lifespan, and chemical composition on labels and QR codes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Value Chain<\/strong>: The entire value chain must comply with human rights and due diligence obligations, especially in the sourcing, processing, and trading of raw materials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Recycling<\/strong>: Minimum amounts of recycled cobalt, lead, lithium, and nickel must be used in new batteries, starting from 2031.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Categorisation<\/strong>: The regulation introduces new battery categories, including batteries for light means of transport (LMT) like e-scooters and e-bikes, as well as electric vehicle batteries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the regulation sets standards for waste management and requires the separate collection and treatment of batteries. Manufacturers must create technical documentation, label batteries, and meet minimum durability and performance requirements. Economic operators with an annual turnover of over 40 million euros are subject to special due diligence obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new European Battery Regulation is a key part of the Green Deal, which aims to make the EU climate neutral by 2050. It replaces the previous Battery Directive and ensures that batteries are disposed of and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you interested in more information or need help?
