What is it and what it includes

The Battery Passport is a digital record required by the EU Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, providing structured, harmonized data on battery identification, safety, carbon footprint, materials, supply chain due diligence, and circularity. It acts as a Digital Product Passport (DPP) specifically for batteries, designed to increase transparency and sustainability across the entire battery value chain

Kiwa’s solution supports all mandatory data fields, offers APIs for static and dynamic data uploads, and ensures tamper-proof identity management. All information on the battery can be accessed via a platform. The platform enables secure, role-based access and comprehensive dashboards for monitoring and reporting, fully aligned with regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Battery Passport?

The Battery Passport is a digital, electronic record required under Article 77 of the EU Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542.

It acts as a Digital Product Passport (DPP) specifically for batteries, designed to increase transparency and sustainability across the entire battery value chain — manufacturing, use phase, and end of life. 
A Battery Passport contains structured and harmonized data on topics such as:

•    identification and traceability 
•    safety and performance 
•    carbon footprint 
•    materials and composition 
•    supply chain due diligence 
•    circularity and end of life information 

Which batteries require a Battery Passport?

The requirement applies to electric vehicle (EV) batteries, industrial batteries above 2 kWh, and light means of transport (LMT) batteries such as e-bikes and e-scooters placed on the EU market or put into service from February 2027.

What information is included in the Battery Passport?

The passport covers unique identifiers, manufacturer details, safety symbols, carbon footprint, supply chain due diligence, materials, circularity, and performance data, as specified in Annex XIII of the regulation.

How is data security managed?

Protecting sensitive battery data is essential for complying with the EU Battery Regulation and for ensuring trust across the battery value chain. Kiwa’s Battery Passport technology provides a robust security framework that combines controlled access, data segregation, and secure digital identities to keep all Battery Passport information safe. 

When does the Battery Passport become mandatory?

From 18 February 2027, all relevant batteries placed on the EU market or put into service must have a compliant Battery Passport.
