Ce que cela implique pour votre passeport
The label is a public, model-level data set that a passport can reuse directly: energy class, repairability score, battery cycles and ingress protection map onto passport fields. EPREL registration shows how a central registry and product identifiers will work under ESPR.
Repairability class
The class (A to E) scores disassembly depth, fasteners, tools, spare-part availability and price, and software support. It is the first EU-wide repairability index and a template for other electronics.
