Recital 83
Recital 83
(83) All automotive, industrial and electric vehicles batteries should be collected and for that purpose, in order to facilitate the recycling thereof as part of a comprehensive and sustainable life cycle management strategy, the producers of such batteries should be required to accept and take back free of charge, all waste automotive, industrial and electric vehicles batteries from end-users. This Regulation must therefore make very specific provision for the storage or warehousing of used batteries, given the level of risk from the chemicals contained therein. Detailed reporting obligations should be established for all actors involved in the collection of waste automotive, industrial and electric vehicles batteries.
