The new Regulation on batteries establish sustainability and safety requirements that batteries should comply with before being placed on the market. These rules are applicable to all batteries entering the EU market, independently of their origin.
The new regulation has three aims: (i) reduce the environmental and social impacts throughout all stages of the battery life cycle; (ii) promote a circular economy; and (iii) strengthen the functioning of the internal market. The new Batteries Regulation, which comes into force on 17 August 2023: 1
These rules are applicable to all batteries entering the EU market, independently of their origin. For batteries manufactured outside the EU, it will be the importer or distributor of the batteries into the EU that needs to ensure compliance of the batteries with the relevant requirements set out in the Regulation. via notified bodies.
The development and production of batteries has become a strategic imperative for the EU, enabling the clean energy transition and as a key component of the competitiveness of the automotive sector. To help the EU become a global leader in sustainable battery production and use, in 2018 the Commission published a strategic action plan on batteries.
84 Overall, we conclude that the Commission’s promotion of an EU industrial policy on batteries has been effective, despite shortcomings on monitoring, coordination and targeting, as well as the fact that access to raw materials remains a major strategic challenge for the EU’s battery value chain.
All batteries on the EU market must meet stricter safety and durability standards. Economic operators, including manufacturers, importers, and distributors, will need to comply with these foundational requirements to ensure regulatory adherence. Carbon footprint reporting becomes mandatory for EV batteries.
