Exciting News: Battery Pass Consortium Unveils Groundbreaking Study on EU Battery Passport

This groundbreaking analysis delves into the realms of economics, environment, and social impact, elucidating where and how the adoption of battery passports can generate value as mandated by the EU Battery Regulation. With a focus on enhancing transparency, circularity, and sustainability within the battery value chain, the study presents twelve use cases along the value chain, accompanied by an initial quantitative assessment of key areas such as improved residual value assessment, recycling efficiency, and end-of-life collection.

The EU Battery Pass is a proposed digital certificate system that would allow consumers to verify the sustainability and environmental impact of batteries used in electric vehicles (EVs) and other applications.

The idea behind the EU Battery Pass is to provide a standardized, transparent way of assessing the environmental impact of batteries, which can be complex and difficult for consumers to evaluate on their own. The pass would include information such as the battery's carbon footprint, the materials used in its production, and how it was recycled at the end of its life.

The EU Battery Pass is part of a larger initiative by the European Union to promote the development of a sustainable battery industry. The EU is investing heavily in battery research and development and has set ambitious targets for the production of EVs and the reduction of carbon emissions in the transportation sector.

VDE Renewables are supporting the Battery Pass Project by covering technical guidance regarding circularity and performance aspects of batteries, in particular industrial batteries, beyond automotive applications. The Pass is necessary to build an in depth understanding of the upcoming battery regulation. It is the only project in Europe that aims to go deeper into the demonstrator and the related documents, that will lead to real guidance for the deployment and management of this system.
