Assuring Sustainability and Traceability in New Mobility
The shift to electric mobility introduces new sustainability challenges—particularly in sourcing, recycling, and reusing high-value materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel. Circular-economy practices are essential for minimizing waste and achieving true carbon neutrality across the value chain.
BQCIS conducts independent verification of sustainability metrics, including Lifecycle Assessments (LCA), carbon-footprint validation, and GHG reduction claim assurance. Our reports quantify the total environmental impact of vehicles and components from raw-material extraction to end-of-life recovery.
We also validate battery reuse and recycling efficiency, ensuring second-life applications meet safety and performance criteria. These certifications support regulatory compliance with upcoming Battery Passport initiatives and ESG disclosure frameworks.
Key Verification & Circularity Activities
Key Benefits of Lifecycle & Circularity Verification
Regulatory Readiness
Demonstrates full compliance with EU Battery Passport, ESG, and extended-producer-responsibility frameworks.
Quantified Sustainability Impact
Provides verified lifecycle data to benchmark emissions and identify material and energy-efficiency opportunities.
Resource Circularity
Validates safe reuse and recycling of critical raw materials, reducing waste and supply-chain dependency.
ESG Credibility & Transparency
Third-party assurance builds investor and stakeholder trust in sustainability claims and performance disclosures.
Success Story
LCA Reveals Hidden Carbon Hotspot in Supply Chain
A leading OEM required verified cradle-to-gate carbon data for an EV chassis to meet EU Battery Passport and CBAM compliance requirements.
BQCIS conducted a full LCA of the aluminum frame and battery casing, auditing supplier data and identifying emission-intensive refining stages within the value chain.
The verified study pinpointed high-carbon aluminum sourcing as the main hotspot. The OEM switched to hydro-powered suppliers, reducing total vehicle CO₂ emissions by 15 % and achieving compliance ahead of schedule.
