- Key Deadline for Producers: On August 18, 2025, significant obligations under the EU Battery Regulation (EU 2023/1542) will come into effect for battery producers, including mandatory registration in each EU Member State where batteries are first made available on the market.
- Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR): Producers will bear financial responsibility for the waste management of all batteries they introduce into the market. This includes compliance with specific labelling requirements, such as providing clear information and waste management symbols to end-users and distributors.
- Comprehensive Lifecycle Framework: The new regulation represents a major shift towards sustainability, establishing a lifecycle framework that governs all aspects of battery production, from manufacturing to recycling. It emphasizes producer responsibility, ensuring that sustainability is integrated throughout the entire battery lifecycle.
