New battery management regulation and directive publications are set to change the requirements for each stage of batteries’ lifecycles. In this article, we’ll break down Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 — the new “Batteries Regulation” — to make sense of how the rules have changed and what’s set to come in the future.
The new regulation amends Directive 2008/98/EC and Regulation (EU) 2019/1020, and repeals Directive 2006/66/EC (aka “the Batteries Directive”), as of August 2025 — although it won’t be generally applicable until 18 February 2024. Implementing the ambitions of the EU’s Circular Economy Action Plan, the Batteries Regulation has been very welcomed.
On 17 August 2023, the publication of Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 concerning batteries and waste batteries (the Batteries Regulation) in the Official Journal of the European Union presented a new milestone for the European Green Deal.
This new cradle-to-grave regulatory framework for batteries will require a lot of more detailed rules (secondary legislation) to be adopted from 2024 to 2028 to be fully operational. Since 2006, batteries and waste batteries have been regulated at EU level under the Batteries Directive.
As of 18 August 2025, the Batteries Regulation will require Member States to establish effective, proportionate, and dissuasive penalties applicable to infringements of the Batteries Regulation, including infringements of the battery due diligence requirements, and ensure that they are implemented.
Alongside the Critical Raw Materials Act, the EU regulations will tend to disfavour producer states that are unable to comply with new norms and procedures for reporting and verification. The European Union's new battery regulations represent an ambitious effort to regulate the full lifecycle of global battery production.
