EnerSys
EU Battery Passport

The EU Battery Passport:

your battery's story, one scan away.

Every EnerSys battery in scope of the EU regulation will carry a QR code that will open its digital battery passport.

▰ WHAT IT IS

Under the Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, from 18 February 2027 each industrial battery rated above 2 kWh placed on the EU market will need to have a digital battery passport: an electronic record of the battery's key information, reached by scanning a QR code on the unit.

The battery passport provides consumers, economic operators, and other relevant stakeholders with access to battery information throughout its lifecycle, in accordance with their respective access rights. Public information is available to everyone. The information is structured by tiers granting access to more specific data based on user classification as set forth by the regulatory framework. An example of restricted access referenced in the regulation are parties with legitimate interest, such as repairers, remanufacturers, second-life operators, and recyclers, as well as notified bodies and market surveillance authorities.

▰ WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU

■ No action is needed today.

■ Once live, scanning the QR code on the battery is all you need to do in order to view its passport.

▰ OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU

■ Several aspects of the regulation are yet to be further defined, delegated, and implemented. Additional regulatory guidance from the European Commission and other competent authorities is expected in this regard. Consequently, EnerSys' implementation approach will continue to evolve in line with official publications.

■ EnerSys remains committed to transparent and consistent communication and will provide further updates as regulatory clarity increases.
