Stichting EPAC

Stichting EPAC was founded in 2015 and is a collective of about 150 affiliated producers and importersTake a look at the companies affiliated with the Stichting EPAC collective here  of bicycle batteries. Stichting EPAC commissions Stibat to collect bicycle batteries in a simple, safe and responsible way. This means that Stibat takes care of the collection points, the collection of the bicycle batteries, and the sorting and recycling of these batteries. Stichting EPAC is guided and monitored by an Advisory Board consisting of the RAI Vereniging and BOVAG.

General Binding Statement

Stichting EPAC has submitted an application to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management for a General Binding Statement (AVV in Dutch) of the existing collection and processing system for bicycle batteries. The State Secretary has declared this AVV binding for five years starting from 1 July 2022. This means that all manufacturers and importers who bring e-bikes and bicycle batteries onto the Dutch market for the first time are obliged to contribute to the costs of the collection and processing system. And that is only fair. The AVV also means that every collection and processing structure for batteries and accumulators in the Netherlands will be tested against the existing collection and processing structure of Stichting EPAC.

Participants

As a manufacturer or importer of e-bikes, you are obliged to take back discarded batteries for recycling. You must also register how many batteries you import or produce for the Dutch market. You must then report this to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management. EPAC is happy to take your collection obligation off your hands.
