4 FAQs about Lithium batteries banned in dublin energy storage installation

Does Ireland have a lithium-ion battery policy?

Unlike the UK, or mainland Europe Ireland has yet to introduce dedicated national regulations to tackle the growing risks associated with lithium-ion batteries, particularly in the e-bike sector.

Are lithium-ion batteries safe?

According to QBE Europe, fires caused by lithium-ion batteries from multiple sources have doubled in just two years. And while regulatory efforts targeting specific categories—like e-bikes—are essential, they do not address a core risk shared by all lithium-ion batteries: safe storage.

What are the new safety requirements for stationary battery storage systems?

New safety requirements apply to stationary battery storage systems, which must be verified as part of CE conformity. Battery management systems must store and make readable data on the ageing status and expected service life of stationary battery storage systems and traction batteries for light and electric vehicles.

When will lithium be recovered from waste batteries?

The regulation sets a target for lithium recovery from waste batteries of 50% by the end of 2027 and 80% by the end of 2031, which can be amended through delegated acts depending on market and technological developments and the availability of lithium From August 2025, Retailers will continue to offer free battery takeback and:
