COMMISSION NOTICE Commission guidelines to facilitate the harmonised application of provisions on the removability and replaceability of portable batteries and LMT batteries in Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 · European Union

Article 11(7) requires that portable batteries or LMT batteries are available as spare parts of the equipment that they power, for a minimum of five years after placing the last unit of the equipment model on the market, with a reasonable and non-discriminatory price for independent professionals and end users. For guidance, similar provisions in other existing EU harmonisation legislation, such as ecodesign implementing regulations, require the delivery of the spare part within five working days after having received the order.
