The strategic project to realize the Battery Pass based on ECLASS envisages restructuring the existing ECLASS class structure in main group 27-05 “Accumulator, Battery” in accordance with the Battery Ordinance (BattVO). The aim is that the wording of the types of batteries defined in the BattVO is present in ECLASS in a comparable way and can be used uniformly by the market.
In addition, in a collaboration between ECLASS and Catena-X, it is planned to use the attribute list developed by Catena-X and still to be harmonized with the "BatteryPass_Data Attribute Longlist" for the description of batteries as a basis for new attributes, which will then also be available in ECLASS. The aim here is to enable a standardized form to be available in ECLASS as quickly as possible, even if not all standardization activities of the various standardization organizations have been finalized as of today.
Catena-X and all interested companies and standardization institutions are involved in the ECLASS activities. Other experts/companies can also be involved in this implementation. Please do not hesitate to contact the ECLASS office.
