With rapid tech innovation, our reliance on batteries—be it cell, car, or backup—grows constantly. But this convenience comes at a cost: discarded batteries leak hazardous chemicals like lead, mercury, lithium, and cadmium, severely harming ecosystems and health. To combat this, India enforced the Battery Waste Management Rules (2022–2025), emphasizing Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). Under EPR, battery producers and importers must ensure collection, recycling, and eco-friendly disposal.
