Sunwoda's Digital Battery Passport Solution was one of nine finalists in the Supply Chain & Scope 3 Decarbonisation Project of the Year category at the 2026 edie Energy & Tech Awards in London. The platform links battery value chain data across raw material sourcing, manufacturing, use and recycling into one digital record. It covers supply chain management, traceability, product carbon footprint, due diligence, passport management and operational management. The solution is aimed at the EU Battery Regulation, which will require passports for EV batteries, light means of transport batteries and industrial batteries above 2 kWh from February 2027. Sunwoda completed five pilots in 2025, engaged 28 suppliers in carbon management, and plans to release phase two in December 2026. The company has also worked with TÜV Rheinland and Siemens China on cross-organization data exchange.

Battery passport story worth a read. Sunwoda got finalist nod at edie awards for a digital passport that ties raw material, manufacturing, use and recycling data into one record. The EU Battery Regulation makes passports mandatory for EV and industrial batteries from Feb 2027, so this is moving from pilot to compliance.

Interesting detail: five pilots in 2025, 28 suppliers engaged. The hard part is getting suppliers to actually share primary data instead of defaults. The article doesn't say how many suppliers are at that level, so treat the progress as early stage.

The passport itself is data infrastructure, not a physical fix. Useful if it makes carbon accounting and end of life tracking less messy. The February 2027 deadline is real, but phase two only lands mid December 2026. That leaves little room for integration hiccups.
