10 December 2020 is geared towards modernising EU legislation on batteries in order to ensure the sustainability and competitiveness of EU battery value chains. The proposal is part of the European Green Deal and related initiatives, including the new circular economy action plan and the new industrial strategy.
Amongst others: Starting from 2025, the Batteries Regulation will gradually introduce declaration requirements, performance classes and maximum limits on the carbon footprint of electric vehicles, light means of transport (such as e-bikes and scooters) and rechargeable industrial batteries.
Scope The regulation applies to all batteries, including all: batteries for light means of transport (LMT) such as electric bikes, e-mopeds and e-scooters. Targets It sets out rules covering the entire life cycle of batteries.
The manufacturer must draw up certain technical documentation. The manufacturer shall operate an approved quality system for the production, inspection and testing of the finished product and shall be subject to surveillance. This applies only to some types of batteries.
The Batteries Regulation has started to became applicable on February 18, 2024, meaning that its provisions have legal effect since this day. The Batteries Regulation is the first European legislation that considers the full life cycle of batteries, including sourcing, manufacturing, use, and recycling, all in a single law.
Labelling requirements will apply from 2026 and the QR code from 2027. The regulation amends Directive 2008/98/EC on waste management (see summary) and Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 on market surveillance and compliance of products (see summary). It repeals Directive 2006/66/EC on the disposal of spent batteries (see summary) from 30 June 2027.
These include performance and durability requirements for industrial batteries, electric vehicle (EV) batteries, and light means of transport (LMT) batteries; safety standards for stationary battery energy storage systems (SBESS); and information requirements on SOH and expected lifetime.

A 1kWh battery could in theory run 20 LED lamps for about 9 hours, or a modern refrigerator for 6 hours. Many solar battery systems have a fixed storage capacity starting at around 2kWh to 14kWh. However, there are arrangements designed to be multiple battery systems, which means they can be added to if you require extra capacity. Battery types
