Battery Digital Product Passport
Battery Passport software for governed data, supply chains and lifecycle.
NexusDpp organises technical data, evidence, identifiers, access and updates across manufacturers, importers, suppliers and authorised stakeholders.
21 August 2026 update: Commission guidance now maps 71 data points
The European Commission published updated preparation guidance bringing together 71 data points and indicating, for EV, LMT and industrial batteries, whether each point is mandatory, optional, conditional or not required to be completed/displayed as of February 2027. The guidance supports preparation but does not create new legal requirements and must be read with Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 and applicable acts.

Access rights: roadmap now indicates Q4 2026
Article 77(9) set 18 August 2026 for the implementing act on legitimate-interest users. The Commission's public roadmap now places the Batteries access-rights implementing act in Q4 2026. NexusDpp therefore keeps role and access policies configurable, separating view, download, sharing and reuse permissions.
EU DPP Registry operational since 20 July 2026
The Registry stores unique identifiers and registration metadata while detailed passport data remains decentralised. Battery projects can already test identifiers, APIs, registration and electronic evidence.
Data governance
The Battery Passport needs a reliable information chain.
NexusDpp structures the work required to obtain information from multiple parties and keep it linked to the identified battery or product.
Composition and characteristics
Technical data, materials, components and identifiers organised by category.
Documents and evidence
Declarations, certificates, reports and attachments linked to relevant data.
Performance and status
Technical and usage updates can be integrated when available and applicable.
Repair and second life
Maintenance, replacement, reuse and lifecycle updates.
Collection and end of life
Information supporting recovery, recycling and lifecycle closure.
Non-EU supply chains
The manufacturer provides data. The importer stays in control.
NexusDpp enables the importer to invite a manufacturer, define required fields, request documents, review information and approve the passport before publication.
- Secure invitation for non-EU manufacturers or suppliers.
- Product-specific checklists and mandatory fields.
- Importer review, correction requests and approval.
- Digital identity and QR generation.
Integrations
Static and dynamic data in the same pathway.
A passport can start with available compliance data and documents and later receive technical information or lifecycle events.
ERP and supply-chain systems
Master data, orders, batches and documents can feed the workflow.
BMS and technical data
Battery status information can be integrated where available and authorised.
QR and role-based access
Public view and protected layers for authorised operators.
FAQ
Battery Passport questions.
When does the battery passport become mandatory?
From 18 February 2027 for LMT batteries, industrial batteries with a capacity greater than 2 kWh and electric-vehicle batteries. The date does not automatically cover every cell or battery; category and operator role must be checked under Regulation (EU) 2023/1542.
Is NexusDpp useful for battery importers?
Yes. The workflow collects data from non-EU manufacturers while keeping checks, approvals and responsibility with the importer.
Can the passport be updated after sale?
Yes. The platform manages versions and lifecycle events such as maintenance, recalls, second life and end of life.
Must a BMS be integrated immediately?
No. A project can begin with available data and evidence, then add technical integrations in a later phase.
Battery pilot project
From technical bill of materials to a verifiable Battery Passport.
The NexusDpp pilot tests technical data, manufacturer evidence, importer accountability, identifiers, QR/NFC, lifecycle and a targeted BMS or business-system integration on a real battery.
