6 FAQs about [Lead-acid battery industry access regulations]

What is the batteries regulation?

The Batteries Regulation is a new regulation that sets requirements for batteries and waste batteries placed in the EU market. It covers all types of batteries unless an exemption applies. In this guide, we explain when the regulation will begin to apply, and its differences from the prior Batteries Directive.

Are lead-acid batteries recyclable?

The targets for recycling efficiency of lead-acid batteries are increased, and new targets for lithium batteries are introduced, in light of the importance of lithium for the battery value chain. In addition, specific recovery targets for valuable materials – cobalt, lithium, lead and nickel – are set to be achieved by 2025 and 2030.

How does directive 2006/66/ec18 affect batteries and waste batteries?

Regulatory framework: Directive 2006/66/EC18 on batteries and waste batteries seeks primarily to improve the environmental performance of batteries, by establishing rules for placing them on the market (in particular, by prohibiting certain hazardous substances) and rules for collecting, recycling and disposing of them.

Why should batteries be regulated in the EU?

The aim of the proposed Regulation is that batteries placed on the EU market are sustainable, circular, high-performing and safe all along their entire life cycle, that they are collected, repurposed and recycled, becoming a true source of valuable raw materials.

What are the new regulations on battery storage in 2024?

The Commission proposes that existing restrictions on the use of hazardous substances in all battery types are maintained, in particular for mercury and cadmium. Furthermore, as of 1 July 2024, rechargeable industrial and electric vehicles batteries with internal storage placed on the Union market will have to have a carbon footprint declaration.

Who is responsible for ensuring battery compliance in the EU?

These rules are applicable to all batteries entering the EU market, independently of their origin. For batteries manufactured outside the EU, it will be the importer or distributor of the batteries into the EU that needs to ensure compliance of the batteries with the relevant requirements set out in the Regulation. via notified bodies.
