What is EPR Registration for Industrial Battery Waste?

Industrial Battery is specifically designed for industrial uses, excluding Portable Battery, Electric Vehicle Battery and Automotive Battery. The Industrial Battery can also consist of sealed Battery (excluding portable battery); unsealed Battery (excluding automotive Battery) and energy storage system Battery. After being fully drained out of energy, the industrial batteries require to be recharged to be used again.

Once the industrial battery can not be recharged then it becomes a waste battery and it is disposed of with adherence to the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2023. EPR registration is required for the management and disposal of the industry battery waste, as per the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2023.

Benefits of the EPR Registration for Industrial Battery Waste

Here are the Benefits of EPR registration for management of the industrial battery waste:

Efficient Management of Waste Batteries

The entities who have completed EPR registration certificate for industrial battery waste must ensure efficient management of the waste generated throughout the lifespan of the industrial batteries. To properly deplete the industrial battery waste the responsible entities may implement a waste collection system and recycle the industrial battery waste and meet the annual target.

Promote Recycling of Battery Waste

The industrial battery manufacturers who possess an EPR registration certificate for the management of the industrial battery waste have to opt for the recycling. The recycling of the battery waste will reduce the charges that are faced by businesses to get rid of or to manage the industrial battery waste.

Financial aid

Businesses must comply with the EPR registration certificate and implement recycling plans for the industrial battery waste and not dispose of it through the waste process, which will be financially cheaper and aid the businesses with valuable materials. Reusable materials like zinc and iron and many more metals, plastics, and secondary materials are recovered from the industrial battery waste which can be used to either produce new industrial batteries and discard the need to purchase new materials.
