Battery Passport

The Battery Passport enables manufacturers to track and document the entire life cycle of their battery products and provide all legally required information to various stakeholder groups in full compliance with the upcoming milestones along the EU Green Deal – specifically the introduction of the mandatory battery passport. The solution introduces a new approach of dealing with large amounts of product data by utilizing the tools of Bosch Semantic Stack: a digital twin is created for each individual battery, based on the open-source IDTA standard, i.e. the Asset Administration Shell (AAS). This is done automatically via an ETL pipeline, and each twin is registered in the Digital Twin Registry for easy location and access. This way, all battery data is stored centrally, processed automatically, and distributed securely.

The Battery Passport provides maximum transparency and simultaneously reduces manual efforts by simplifying and automating processes. This ensures a high degree of efficiency even with a constantly growing data load through added products, data sources, or use cases. Furthermore, it is highly flexible: specific aspects can be updated dynamically and in a targeted manner without having to alter the entire system architecture. This allows for quick reaction times when changes in legislation or market guidelines occur. Additionally, the solution is freely scalable to further uses cases beyond the battery passport. The underlying data strategy can be used for all kinds of product data across their entire life cycle and ensures high added value with little additional effort.
