Lithium-based batteries must achieve minimum recycling efficiency of 70 per cent by 2030. And by 2031, the regulation will set minimum recycled content share targets of 85 per cent for lead, 16 per cent for cobalt, and 6 per cent for both lithium and nickel. DEKRA advises everyone affected by the new EU Batteries Regulation not to waste time.
The CE conformity assessment and CE marking requirements started to apply on 18 August 2024. Initially, requirements for carbon footprint, recycled content and performance and durability requirements for portable batteries of general use will not be part of the CE-marking but will be added at a later date.
Some requirements are only applicable for some battery categories. Requirements associated with a new CE conformity assessment of batteries are introduced in the Regulation. This means that all batteries, regardless of whether they are used in a product or supplied separately, need to be CE marked according to this regulation.
The timeframe for battery certification can range from a few weeks to several months, depending on the type of certification and the complexity of the tests. What are the costs associated with battery certification?
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).
The EU Battery Regulation encompasses a comprehensive set of rules and requirements established by the European Union (EU). On July 28, 2023, the EU Commission published the new EU Battery Regulation (2023/1542) concerning batteries and waste batteries, which replaced the EU Batteries Directive (2006/66/EC) and took effect on August 17, 2023.
Batteries may require several key certifications depending on their chemistry, intended use, and market. Here are some of the most common types: Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a global safety certification organization that tests and certifies batteries for safety and performance. Essential UL standards include:
