Recycling- a Money Challenge
PRINTED BATTERIES empowering GREEN ELECTRONICS 4
The EP Environment
Committee has
recommended that
Member States should
collect 85%
of WEEE by 2016
and
recycle 50-75%
Producers should
integrate the costs
generated by collection
and treatment into their
product prices,
so that they will have an
incentive to reduce those
costs

Printed Batteries / Battery Legislation
PRINTED BATTERIES empowering GREEN ELECTRONICS 7
‘battery’ or ‘accumulator’ means any source of electrical energy generated by direct
conversion of chemical energy and consisting of one or more primary battery cells
(nonrechargeable) or consisting of one or more secondary battery cells (rechargeable);
Appliances into which batteries and accumulators are incorporated shall be accompanied
by instructions showing how they can be removed safely and, where appropriate, informing
the end-user of the type of the incorporated batteries and accumulators.
These provisions shall not apply where, for safety, performance, medical or data integrity
reasons, continuity of power supply is necessary and requires a permanent connection
between the appliance and the battery or accumulator.
Member States shall, having regard to the environmental impact of transport, take
necessary measures to maximize the separate collection of waste batteries and
accumulators and to minimize the disposal of batteries and accumulators as mixed
municipal waste in order to achieve a high level of recycling for all waste batteries and
accumulators.
Printed Batteries
Increased environmental performance
PRINTED BATTERIES empowering GREEN ELECTRONICS 8
Member States which have manufacturers established on their territory shall promote
research and encourage improvements in the overall environmental performance of
batteries and accumulators throughout their entire life cycle as well as the
development and marketing of batteries and accumulators which contain smaller
quantities of dangerous substances or which contain less polluting substances, in
particular as substitutes for mercury, cadmium and lead.
What makes printed battery technology
environmental friendly ?
PRINTED BATTERIES empowering GREEN ELECTRONICS 9
- printed batteries are
–> ROHS compliant
- printed batteries do not need a separate housing
–> printegration !
- printed batteries are very flexible in size (less row material)
-> customization
- printed batteries will enable
–> disposable electronics
Green Initiative
Discussion
Printed batteries are very flexible in size and performance
and therefore less row material is needed -> customization for mid/low volume

Battery Exemption
• Security
• Data Safety
• Medical
Or, you can create your own
“closed loop”
collection system
WEEE Exemption : Products where the electrical
or electronic components are not needed to fulfill
its main function, e.g. a musical birthday card

What is a Green Battery ?
PRINTED BATTERIES empowering GREEN ELECTRONICS 15
All of these Statements are open for discussion :
Printed battery
• is based on the “same” kind of main materials as traditional batteries
• materials provide at least the same amount of energy as a traditional processed
• can be easier integrated into intelligent objects for the Internet of Things
• can be produced with less than 50% CO2 impact
• is leading in Material Safety , Material Efficiency and no scarce Materials Usage
• has to be compliant with the current battery legislation
In printed flexible, autonomous systems the CO2% battery impact(10%) is similar to the %
of systems with traditional batteries .
As traditional batteries could not enable these types of new systems :
