An Act promoting responsible end-of-life management for electric and hybrid vehicle batteries

This bill prohibits landfill disposal of electric/hybrid vehicle batteries when they reach end-of-life and requires responsible management. It assigns specific responsibilities to battery providers (the original sellers/manufacturers), secondary handlers (entities handling used batteries), and specialized recyclers. All parties must follow a battery management hierarchy prioritizing reuse, repair, or repurposing before recycling, and report annually on battery volumes and material recovery rates to the Environmental Protection Department. The law defines key terms like "end-of-life" and "specialized battery recycler" to clarify requirements for handling these batteries.
