The EU has implemented a sweeping new regulation that imposes significant obligations on manufacturers, importers, and distributors of batteries in the European market. The EU battery regulation was adopted June 14, 2023, and it replaces the current batteries legislation, EU Directive 2006/66/EC Battery Directive.
It is important that battery-specific construction and operation contracts are put in place. The past year has seen massive growth in the number of battery storage projects being developed in the UK, with battery costs dropping and appetite for investment into the sector growing.
The EU Battery Regulation encompasses a comprehensive set of rules and requirements established by the European Union (EU).
The first set of regulation requirements under the EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542 will come into effect on 18 August 2024.
If a battery is subject to more than one regulation in the EU, one declaration can be provided to cover all applicable regulations. The regulation places certain restrictions on the amount of mercury, cadmium, and lead used in batteries.
