PORTABLE POWER ENERGY
The European Portable Battery Association (EPBA) is the leading organisation representing quality manufacturers of portable power solutions, working with stakeholders to safeguard and enhance our positive contribution to the EU economy, the environment, and the communities in which we operate.
European Battery Recycling Day is celebrated on September 9, the birthday of Luigi Galvani, the inventor of the frog battery. The invention of the frog battery is a captivating story of curiosity, experimentation, and a profound misunderstanding that led to significant scientific advancements.
As we gear up for the annual European Battery Recycling Day on September 9, it is time to reflect on the importance of this initiative and how we can all contribute to a greener future, emphasizing the collective effort needed to make a significant impact on battery recycling across Europe.
In a detailed statement, EPBA has appealed to the European Commission to endorse stringent standards for ensuring the safety of battery packaging, reiterating its commitment to protecting children from the severe dangers of ingesting lithium coin cell batteries.
