Advancing the implementation of the battery passport in Europe and beyond
Towards a truly sustainable and circular battery life through digital value chains



The digital battery passport will be a core tool to enable the sustainable scaling of battery value chains globally. While decarbonization and dematerialization are overarching goals of the European Green Deal, more ambitious action from both business and politics is required. Battery Passport is a lighthouse example of using innovation to achieve these goals, support legal implementation, and empower companies to take informed decisions on their supply chains and products. A group of partners from industry, science and
beyond recognized the opportunity forming “Battery Pass”, a consortium of leading experts to jointly advance the implementation of the battery passport based on requirements of the emerging EU Battery Regulation and beyond. By setting the necessary foundations and bringing together different stakeholders and initiatives, “Battery Pass” aims to contribute to this complex challenge, which starts with batteries but will go far beyond as a first step towards the broader implementation of digital product passports in the future.
