      <description>The battery passport has three access tiers: public, persons with a legitimate interest, and notified bodies, market surveillance and the Commission. Who has a legitimate interest is for an implementing act whose deadline has passed. A draft is out for feedback: it names repairers, recyclers, repurposers and purchasers and tightly limits sharing. As of our check on 25 October 2026.</description>

      <description>From 18 February 2027, every stationary battery above 2 kWh placed on the EU market or put into service needs its own digital battery passport, reachable through a QR code. The economic operator placing it on the market is responsible. Performance values and BMS data are already required today; several Commission acts are still missing.</description>

      <description>The ERP gives the battery passport its product master, serial numbers, production confirmations and deliveries, but no reviewed passport values. The connection is secure when a technical user with minimal rights works in the ERP, an API key can only stage and read, people commit, approve and publish, and changes come back through the feed.</description>

      <title>From Excel and ERP exports to a reviewed battery passport</title>

      <description>Most of the data for a battery passport already exists in Excel lists, ERP exports, data sheets and with suppliers. The way to a reviewed passport: separate model and battery data, import serial numbers instead of retyping them, close gaps with evidence and supplier requests, have a second person approve values, then connect the ERP.</description>

      <description>From 18 February 2027, every industrial battery above 2 kWh placed on the EU market or put into service needs its own battery passport. That covers far more than home storage: forklift traction batteries, UPS and telecom back-up, grid-scale storage and batteries in machinery. What decides it is the category, the capacity and what counts as one battery.</description>

      <description>The battery passport belongs to the finished, safely working battery placed on the market, not to every cell or module. If modules or racks form one battery with a common BMS, the system needs one passport. Independently functioning units are considered one by one. The Commission expects a case-by-case decision, so record yours.</description>

      <title>Provenance and four-eyes review: why who entered what matters</title>

      <description>The Battery Regulation requires passport data that is accurate, complete and up to date, with authentication, reliability and integrity ensured. It does not literally require a four-eyes review, but that is the obvious way to get there. It means source, evidence, the person who entered and the person who approved each value, a history without overwriting, and signed passport versions.</description>

      <description>Composition, chemistry, hazardous substances, critical raw materials and cell values are usually known only to the cell or module supplier. Article 39 of the Battery Regulation obliges suppliers to provide the necessary information free of charge, but the passport remains your responsibility. Request exactly the missing fields through a link, with evidence and a deadline, and review every answer.</description>
