Customer ServiceThe EU Batteries Regulations are changing how manufacturers source, label, use, and recycle batteries. Here''s an overview of the regulation changes and what to expect.

They expect to hold their third Trilogue meeting in early October and to adopt the Regulation by the end of the year. The removability and replaceability requirements on portable batteries are likely to apply as of early 2025.
End-users may replace the original battery with a battery made by a third party, that does not meet the manufacturer's safety specification. Using batteries that does not meet the required battery performance and safety measures, may cause abnormal heating of the battery, which could result in fire or explosion.
The European Parliament and Council are likely to agree that the removability and replaceability requirements should not apply to portable batteries where the “continuity of power supply is necessary and a permanent connection between the [appliance] and the [respective] portable battery is required for safety, medical or data integrity reasons.”
By allowing for battery removal and replacement to be carried out correctly by experts, all the risks that might be caused by end-users replacing the battery can be avoided, manufacturers can continue to design products with resource efficiency and energy efficiency in mind and end-users can continue to use their device safely.
However, as with the EU rules on the type approval of vehicles ( see e.g., Regulation 2018/858 ), the EU institutions intend to ensure that manufacturers may not limit the possibility to remove and replace the batteries to only their dealers.
