The General Product Safety Regulation covers safety aspects of a product, including lithium batteries, which are not covered by other regulations. Although there are harmonised standards under the regulation, we could not find any that specifically relate to batteries.
For lithium-ion battery cells, which are currently the state of the art in electric vehicles, it reached 44 GWh in 202051, approximately 70 GWh in 2022 and could rise up to 520 GWh by 202552.
With 587 votes in favour, nine against and 20 abstentions, MEPs endorsed a deal reached with the Council to overhaul EU rules on batteries and waste batteries. The new law takes into account technological developments and future challenges in the sector and will cover the entire battery life cycle, from design to end-of-life.
The requirements include: The Inland Transport of Dangerous Goods Directive requires that the transportation of lithium batteries and other dangerous goods must be done according to the requirements of the Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR).
The new law takes into account technological developments and future challenges in the sector and will cover the entire battery life cycle, from design to end-of-life. Key measures foreseen by the regulation:
