What is a Digital Battery Passport?
A Digital Battery Passport (DBP) is a structured digital record that stores all key data about a battery across its entire lifecycle - from raw material sourcing to end-of-life recycling. Mandated under EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542, every EV battery, light means of transport (LMT) battery, and industrial battery above 2 kWh placed on the EU market must have a compliant battery passport by February 2027.
The passport is linked to the physical battery via a unique identifier - typically a QR code - and must be accessible to regulators, supply chain partners, and consumers. It covers material composition, carbon footprint, supply chain provenance, state of health (SoH), recycled content, and end-of-life instructions.
Beyond compliance, the Digital Battery Passport creates commercial value: better second-life asset intelligence, stronger supply chain transparency, reduced due diligence costs, and improved ESG reporting.
What a Battery Passport Contains
- Material composition
- Carbon footprint
- Supply chain origin
- State of health
- Recycled content
- Hazardous substances
- Manufacturer data
- End-of-life instructions
EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542: Key Requirements
Who must comply?
Any manufacturer, importer, or distributor placing EV batteries, LMT batteries, or industrial batteries above 2 kWh on the EU market after February 2027.
What does the regulation require?
- A unique battery identifier (QR code or data matrix)
- A digital record accessible throughout the battery lifecycle
- Carbon footprint declaration per battery model
- Due diligence on cobalt, lithium, natural graphite, and nickel sourcing
- State of health and remaining useful life (for batteries in use)
- Recycled content percentage by material
- End-of-life handling and recycling instructions
Key dates
What goes into a Digital Battery Passport
From 18 February 2027, every EV battery, industrial battery over 2 kWh and light-means-of-transport battery sold in the EU must carry a passport you can reach by scanning a QR code on the pack. The passport covers the battery from the mine to the recycler. Some fields are open to anyone; others sit behind role-based access for repairers, second-life operators and recyclers. Recycled-content thresholds tighten from 2031 onwards.
What the passport has to contain
Battery identity
Serial number, manufacturer, place and date of production, and the QR code that resolves to the public passport.
Materials and sourcing
What the battery is made of - lithium, cobalt, nickel, graphite and the rest - where each came from, and how much of it is recycled.
Carbon footprint
Cradle-to-gate CO2 per kWh for the specific battery model, following the PEFCR method the EU recognises.
Performance and ageing
Rated capacity, expected cycle life, and live state-of-health and state-of-charge once the battery is in use.
Safety, repair and end-of-life
Hazardous substances, dismantling and repair guidance, and what a recycler needs to process the battery at end-of-life.
Who sees what
- Open to everyone: basic battery details, material composition and sustainability metrics - the things a buyer or a regulator might want to check.
- Behind role-based access: dismantling procedures, exact chemical composition and other technical detail that only repairers, second-life operators and recyclers need.
Who and when
- Applies to EV batteries, light-means-of-transport (LMT) batteries and any industrial battery above 2 kWh placed on the EU market.
- Passport mandatory from 18 February 2027. Tighter recycled-content targets follow in 2031.
Frequently Asked Questions
A Digital Battery Passport is a digital record mandated by EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542 that stores all relevant data about a battery across its entire lifecycle, including material composition, carbon footprint, supply chain origin, state of health, and recycled content. It is accessible via a QR code or unique battery identifier.
Under EU Regulation 2023/1542, Digital Battery Passports become mandatory from 18 February 2027 for all EV batteries, light means of transport (LMT) batteries, and industrial batteries above 2 kWh placed on the EU market.
A compliant Digital Battery Passport must include: battery model and manufacturer details, material composition and hazardous substances, carbon footprint declaration, supply chain and responsible sourcing data, state of health (SoH) and remaining useful life, recycled content information, and end-of-life handling instructions.
Circuland's AI-powered platform enables organisations to create, populate, and manage Digital Battery Passports by centralising compliance documents, audits, supply chain data, and carbon analytics. It integrates with existing PIM, PLM, and BIM systems and outputs regulation-compliant passports accessible via QR code.
Circuland supports compliance with EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542, EU ESPR (Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation), and related Digital Product Passport mandates across batteries, construction, and other regulated sectors.
The battery passport is a specific type of Digital Product Passport (DPP) mandated under EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542. While all battery passports are DPPs, not all DPPs are battery passports. The broader DPP framework under EU ESPR covers additional product categories including textiles, construction products, and electronics.
Any battery placed on the EU market - regardless of where it was manufactured - must comply with EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542. This affects manufacturers in the UK, US, Asia, and globally who export to EU markets.
Each battery receives a unique identifier (QR code or data matrix code) that links to its digital passport record stored in a compliant data registry. The QR code must be physically attached to the battery or its packaging and remain accessible throughout the battery's life.
