The regulation is part of the EU’s shift to a circular economy, an important aspect of the European Green Deal (see summary), and will increase security of supply for raw materials and energy, along with enhancing the EU’s strategic autonomy and competitiveness. Scope The regulation applies to all batteries, including all:
All batteries collected should be recycled. – when no viable end-market is available. In addition to the requirement to recycle all batteries collected, the Directive also specifies recycling efficiency levels focusing on the quality of the recycling process. What are the recycling efficiencies in the Directive?
The Batteries Directive and the ELV Directive both establish the principle of producer responsibility. A car producer is also regarded as a battery producer in a Member State under the Batteries Directive if it places the battery on the market (inside the car) for the first time in that Member State on a professional basis.
In the EU, setting (legislative) targets for recycling of lithium from (EV) bat-teries (as per the proposed new Battery Regulation) will provide a major incentive for collection and recycling, supporting the development of the recycling market.
Safety, sustainability and labelling Companies must identify, prevent and address social and environmental risks linked to the sourcing, processing and trading of raw materials such as lithium, cobalt, nickel and natural graphite contained in their batteries.
