A regulatory term referring to a version of a battery all units of which share the same technical characteristics relevant for the requirements of this.
Battery model is the regulation's grouping term for batteries that share the same compliance-relevant technical characteristics and the same model identifier. It is the concept that lets the law treat many physical units as one repeatable compliance class rather than forcing every individual battery to stand alone.
Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 concerning batteries and waste batteries
a version of a battery all units of which share the same technical characteristics relevant for the requirements of this Regulation on sustainability, safety, labelling, marking and information, and the same model identifier;
Reference: Article 3, point 19
This term matters when a manufacturer needs to know whether one set of test results, declarations, or passport data can legitimately cover multiple physical units. It also affects catalogue structure, model identifiers, and how evidence is reused across a product family without overstating equivalence.
For Minespider, battery model is one of the core scaling terms in battery compliance data. If model boundaries are defined badly, a company can either duplicate evidence unnecessarily or, worse, apply one battery's data to units that are not truly equivalent.
Useful but lower priority than battery passport and traceability.
