« The Battery Directive is working well, but use the revision of the Directive to make it the central piece
of environmental and health & safety legislation for our sector. »

EC objectives of the review process
• ‘EC Roadmap’ from August last year – 1st step of revision process
▪ Assess need for further risk management measures▪ For batteries containing heavy metals, appropriateness of the minimum
collection targets for all waste portable batteries▪ Possible introduction of further targets and the appropriateness of
recycling efficiency levels set by the Directive. ▪ Legal consistency, including with other pieces of legislation.▪ Recent evolutions of technical aspects and of the use of batteries (e.g.
second-use) of vehicle batteries in stationary power storage installations)▪ Consider how the reuse, recycling and collection of batteries can be
enhanced.

Background of current EU Battery Directive
• First Directive from 1991
• Entry-into-force of current Directive in 2006
• Review and revision of current Directive has started
• Use of batteries nowadays is more important than at the time of the Directive's adoption in 2006; e.g.
• their electric power is increased, • the functions they perform are more numerous,
• Technologies for their production and functioning are more complex,
• All these and similar trends will persist in coming years and decades.

General EUROBAT feedback on EC Roadmap
• Three EUROBAT points as guiding principles for the revision of the EU Battery Directive:
1. Ensure the competitiveness of EU battery manufacturers
2. Link the Directive with EU’s ambition to promote a circular economy
3. Create legal and regulatory coherence with other pieces of EU legislation (End-of-Life Vehicles Directive, REACH etc.)
![Page 9: ‘EU Battery Directive & Circular Economy’ · 2017-11-03 · clean energy package (ener) mobility package (move) set plan (rtd) communication on innovation promotion of e-mobility](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050312/5f7432d0ac32b765bb40b257/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
EUROBAT assessment of current Directive
• Overall the Battery Directive is working well; our expectations for the future are as follows:
1. Against any bans of battery chemistries used in automotive and industrial applications
2. Current take-back of functions well - No collection targets for automotive and industrial batteries
3. No need to change current system of recycling efficiencyclassification and rates

Labelling
• History of incidents in the lead-acid battery waste stream
• Current labelling refers to content of heavy metals
• Future labeling should refer to the electrochemical system
• IEC standard under development
New labelling scheme will further improve safety & efficiency in collection, transport and recycling

2nd life of batteries
Position of European Commission on 2nd life of batteries:
• EC Mobility package (May 2017): “Repurposing and recycling batteries will represent a challenge but also an opportunity for economic and resource savings in future transport and energy storage system”
• Manufacturing target of Commission’s SET Plan: Fully establish Second Life by 2030
Questions to be answered?
What is end of life? | What qualifies for 2nd life
Liability for safety in the 2nd life application?
End-of-(2nd)-life responsibilities?

Overlaps with other pieces of EU legislation
• Batteries are currently regulated by three pieces of EU legislation:
1. REACH - substances
2. End-of-Life Vehicles Directive – automotive lead batteries
3. Battery Directive - all types of batteries and accumulators
Overlaps between these 3 pieces of EU legislation need to beaddressed.

EU Circular Economy package
Why to promote applications and advantages of batteries, and establishBattery Directive as key piece of EU legislation for our sector?
• EP proposed amendment for Battery Directive as part of Circular Economy package:
take into account ‘[…] the technical development of new types of batteries that do not use hazardous substances, in particular no heavy or other metals or metal ions’.
• Ignores existing EU legislation to protect environment and health & safety
• Ignores established collection and recycling schemes of batteries
• Ignores socio-economic contributions
• Etc.

Mobility package (31 May 2017)
Answers some of our demands
• Batteries as a key enabling technology • EC to support an industry-led initiative • Develop support measures for research, development and manufacturing of the next generation of battery
cells and battery packs in the EU. • Identification of strength and weaknesses of EU battery industry compared to international competitors
But needs to be open to all battery technologies
EC Recognition of a Battery Strategy,but not enough...
