Our experts on the battery regulation
"The battery regulation addresses the entire life cycle of batteries for the first time. This requires interaction between the economic players involved and creates incentives to give batteries a second life. An important milestone in the sustainable use of raw materials and increasing the transparency of supply chains."
Dr. Jochen Mähliß, Head of Batteries and Energy Storage Systems, VDE
