To respond to the growing demands, the EU has adopted a New Battery Regulation in July 2023, which replaces the previous Battery Directive from 2006 (EU Battery Directive 2006/66/EC). We summarized the Directive and its key changes for you. REGULATION (EU) 2023/1542 of July 12, 2023 on batteries and waste batteries
The Council today adopted a new regulation that strengthens sustainability rules for batteries and waste batteries. For the first time EU law will regulate the entire life cycle of a battery – from production to reuse and recycling – and ensure that batteries are safe, sustainable and competitive.
The new EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542 entered into force on 17 August 2023 and covers the whole lifecycle of batteries from production to reuse and recycling. While the Battery Regulation is already in force, further legal documents will be published in the coming years specifying certain aspects of the implementation (see timeline below).
Since 2006, batteries and waste batteries have been regulated at EU level under the Batteries Directive. The Commission proposed to revise this Directive in December 2020 due to new socioeconomic conditions, technological developments, markets, and battery uses.
