Battery Passport Readiness Audit — Early Access

A short research audit for UK manufacturers, importers and other economic operators preparing for the EU battery-passport requirement that applies from 18 February 2027 to covered EV, light-means-of-transport and industrial batteries.

What the readiness audit checks

  • Whether covered battery categories and responsibilities are understood
  • Whether required data points have named owners and source systems
  • Where supplier evidence and sustainability data are incomplete
  • Whether product, technical and identifier data can be traced to maintained records
  • Whether change control, versioning and evidence lineage are defined
  • Which gaps should be closed first before full passport implementation

The output is intended to be a practical data-gap and ownership map. It is not legal advice, a conformity assessment, certification, or a guarantee of compliance.

Why we are testing this now

The EU Digital Product Passport Registry became operational in July 2026, and current European Commission guidance consolidates 71 battery-passport data points. We are testing whether teams need a lightweight way to identify missing fields, unclear ownership and scattered evidence before committing to a full implementation platform.
