Get a Head Start on Mandated Digital Battery Passports

Achieve compliance and demonstrate responsible sourcing with Circulor’s Battery Passport solution.

Accelerate the Transition to a More Sustainable Future

Circulor's Battery Passport digitally tracks batteries through their entire life cycle, supporting second-life uses and boosting transparency.

What Is the Battery Passport?

1

A battery passport collects, stores and displays information about a battery’s product lifecycle.

2

It tells you everything you need to know about its manufacturing history, usage and end of life.

3

Linking batteries to digital supply chain data supports compliance, enables re-use and drives the circular economy.
