Chemistry & composition
Cell chemistry, active materials and hazardous substances.
The EU Battery Regulation (2023/1542) requires a digital battery passport for LMT, EV and industrial batteries above 2 kWh from 2027. Norruva turns your cell data into a verifiable passport — chemistry, carbon footprint, state of health and recycled content.

Inside the battery passport
Norruva structures every field the regulation expects — collected from your systems and suppliers, validated, and anchored.
Cell chemistry, active materials and hazardous substances.
Declared footprint across the battery life cycle.
Performance, durability and expected service life.
Cobalt, lithium, nickel and lead recovered content.
Sourcing, responsible-supply and chain-of-custody data.
Collection, second-life routing and recycling instructions.
The road to 2027
Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 enters into force, replacing the Batteries Directive.
Carbon-footprint declaration and due-diligence obligations phase in.
A digital passport is required for LMT, EV and industrial batteries above 2 kWh.

Standards & references
The battery passport is set by the EU Battery Regulation, within the wider ESPR framework and responsible-sourcing guidance.
EU Battery Regulation — mandatory battery passport from 2027.
ESPR — overarching sustainable-products framework.
Responsible sourcing guidance referenced by the regulation.
Resolves the on-product QR / data carrier to the passport.
How it works
Norruva connects to your BMS and supply-chain systems, validates against the battery-passport model, and anchors a record that stays current through life.
Pull the data you already hold from the systems you already run — no re-keying.
The sector template checks every required field and flags gaps before anything is published.
Norruva anchors the passport and resolves it from the product’s QR or Digital Link, with a full audit trail.
Developers
Send the cell data to a single endpoint. Norruva validates it against the 2023/1542 model, anchors the record and returns a passport that resolves from the product QR.

The consumer view
A technician or recycler scans the pack and reads its chemistry, health and sourcing — the record that follows the battery through every life.
Common questions
Under Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, LMT batteries, EV batteries and industrial batteries above 2 kWh require a digital battery passport, applying from 2027.
Chemistry and composition, carbon footprint, recycled content, state of health and lifetime, and due-diligence information. Norruva ships a battery template covering each group.
From your BMS or fleet telemetry. Norruva ingests it via API and keeps the passport's health and lifetime fields current — the values shown here are illustrative.
Through supplier declarations and due-diligence records linked to the passport, so cobalt, lithium, nickel and lead figures stay auditable.
