Key Requirements for Traction Battery Compliance

Carbon Footprint Declaration

Batteries in future require a carbon footprint declaration based on defined rules and verified lifecycle data. TÜV Rheinland supports the preparation and verification activities needed for this documentation.

Recycled Content Verification

Certain batteries in future must demonstrate minimum levels of recycled materials. TÜV Rheinland supports the preparation of traceable and validated supplier documentation.

Digital Battery Passport Readiness

The battery passport requires structured information on composition, performance, and traceability. TÜV Rheinland provides guidance to help prepare the necessary data.
