What is DIN SPEC 99100?
DIN DKE SPEC 99100 "Requirements for battery passport data attributes" translates EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542 into a concrete data structure with seven categories. Background in detail: DIN SPEC 99100: The battery passport standard.

All 7 data categories — as a guided workflow
Instead of interpreting the specification attribute by attribute yourself, DPP Hero guides you step by step through each category. Every field corresponds to a DIN SPEC 99100 data attribute.
Identification
GTIN, serial number, manufacturer details and production site — the basis for every unique battery identifier, compatible with GS1 Digital Link.
Materials & composition
Battery chemistry, critical raw materials such as lithium, cobalt and nickel, and hazardous substances — structured according to the specification attributes.
Carbon footprint
Total balance, performance class and lifecycle phases of the LCA study — entered in structured form instead of hidden in PDF attachments.
Supply chain due diligence
Due diligence report and policy evidence per EU Battery Regulation — stored as documents and linked in the battery passport.
Circularity
Recycling rates, spare parts, disassembly information and end-of-life — the data recyclers and second-life operators need.
Performance & durability
Capacity, voltage, lifetime, temperature ranges and performance metrics — fully aligned with section 6 of the specification.
Labeling & declaration of conformity
Upload EU declaration of conformity, test reports and labels — then publish the product with QR code and public product page.
When the standard evolves, the software follows
BatteryPass Data Model, Data Attribute Longlist, CEN/CLC JTC 24, EU delegated acts — DPP Hero actively tracks regulatory developments and implements changes after publication.

Frequently asked questions about DIN SPEC 99100
Is DIN SPEC 99100 mandatory?
No. DIN SPEC 99100 is a specification, not a legal requirement. What is mandatory is the battery passport itself — from February 18, 2027 for EV, industrial (over 2 kWh) and LMT batteries under EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542. However, the specification is widely regarded as the basis for upcoming EU delegated acts and is therefore an important guide for preparation.
What data does DIN SPEC 99100 require?
The specification defines data attributes in seven categories: identification, materials and composition, carbon footprint, supply chain due diligence, circularity, performance and durability, and labeling and EU declaration of conformity. It includes mandatory and optional information. A detailed overview is in the article DIN SPEC 99100: The battery passport standard.
Does DPP Hero implement all DIN SPEC 99100 data categories?
Yes — all seven data categories are implemented as guided steps, from master data to labeling. DPP Hero is a creation and management tool: responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the data lies with the respective economic operator. For an overview of all features, see battery passport software for the EU Battery Regulation.
What happens if EU delegated acts differ from the specification?
DPP Hero actively tracks regulatory developments — from the BatteryPass Data Model and CEN/CLC JTC 24 standards to delegated acts under Art. 77/78. Changes are implemented after publication; your captured data is preserved and migrated to the updated structure.
