One regulation, no delegated act to wait for.
Batteries do not wait for ESPR. Regulation 2023/1542 writes the battery passport into the law itself, with its own date and its own list of contents. The rules are already known, and so is the deadline.
Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, Art. 77 - 02
Which batteries need one.
From 18 February 2027, every light means of transport battery, every industrial battery above 2 kWh and every electric vehicle battery placed on the market needs a passport. Portable batteries in phones and laptops are out of scope.
