BloqSens Launches Battery Pass Explorer to Increase Transparency in the EU Battery Passport

What data is required for the future EU Battery Passport? Where are these requirements defined in regulations, and which ones are relevant to your company? With the new Battery Pass Explorer, the Swiss company BloqSens AG provides a freely accessible online tool that allows companies to systematically research, filter, and export the extensive requirements for the digital battery passport.

The digital battery passport includes numerous information requirements—ranging from basic battery and manufacturer information to materials and composition, as well as sustainability, performance, and life cycle data. The BloqSens Battery Pass Explorer makes this complexity accessible in a systematic and practical way.

Research and filter requirements in a targeted manner

At the heart of the Explorer is a structured overview of the data and requirements relevant to the Battery Passport. Extensive filtering options allow users to narrow down the information in a targeted manner and tailor it to their specific use case.

Key features include extensive filtering options to specifically identify relevant Battery Passport requirements, as well as source citations and references to regulatory frameworks that allow users to trace individual requirements and conduct in-depth research. An export function can, if desired, incorporate applied filters, thereby providing customized data sets for further processing. The tool is also available in four languages—German, English, French, and Italian—making it suitable for use in international and multilingual project teams.

The Battery Pass Explorer thus goes beyond a static summary of regulatory requirements. Users can select the information relevant to them from the entire catalog of requirements and export it for use in their ongoing project work.

Guidelines for Preparing for the Battery Passport

The Explorer can also serve as a starting point for an internal gap analysis. The compiled requirements can be compared with existing data sources, IT systems, responsibilities, and supplier information.

This helps identify key questions early on: What requirements apply to our company? What data is already available? Where are there gaps? What information needs to be obtained from suppliers? And what technical or organizational processes still need to be established?

A particular focus is placed on traceability. The requirements presented are linked to sources and regulatory references, allowing users to go directly from an individual data point to its regulatory context.

«Companies should not only know what information is required for the Battery Pass, but also understand where it comes from and the regulatory basis on which it is required,» says Peter Krummenacher, CEO of BloqSens AG. «With the Battery Pass Explorer, we aim to translate complex requirements into a practical, usable framework.»

Freely accessible and with no barriers to entry

BloqSens makes the Battery Pass Explorer available to the public free of charge. Companies can use the tool for initial orientation, for internal analyses and workshops, or as a basis for planning a specific Battery Passport implementation.
