New standards to propel UK’s lithium-ion battery manufacturing industry
Wed, 02/03/2021 - 10:16 Paul Crompton
Two standards designed to encourage a safe and sustainable UK battery manufacturing supply chain have been published by The British Standards Institution (BSI).
Published as part of the ‘Faraday Battery Challenge Standardization Programme’, the standards are designed to underpin innovation and enable consistent practices in the production and development of batteries.
They focus on health, safety and environmental considerations in battery manufacturing and will guide the UK as it prepares to phase out diesel and petrol vehicles from 2030.
