01
Make the requirement testable.
Turn source text, technical standards, and deadlines into explicit product decisions.
Focused integrations, operational tools, and compliance systems for the requirements shaping battery passports.
The EU Battery Regulation (2023/1542) requires a digital battery passport — accessible via a QR code physically on the battery — for EV, industrial and LMT batteries placed on the EU market from February 2027, carrying carbon footprint, material composition, supply-chain due-diligence and lifecycle performance data that has to stay accurate as the battery moves through use, repair and eventual recycling.
That means the passport can't be a static file generated once at manufacture: it's a live data record with defined write-access for different actors across the value chain, a resolvable identifier standard, and an API surface that has to interoperate with whatever product-passport infrastructure the wider Digital Product Passport rules eventually standardise on across other product categories.
Three decisions keep the project grounded in operations from the first workshop onward.
01
Turn source text, technical standards, and deadlines into explicit product decisions.
02
Map owners, data sources, approvals, and failure paths before choosing the software shape.
03
Include the operational trail, documentation, and maintainable architecture the requirement demands.
Each route starts from a distinct operational pressure.
If battery passports software is on your roadmap, describe what you run today and where the requirement gets stuck.
