Digital Battery Passport
1 Abstract
This specification describes a vocabulary for asserting a digital battery pass (DBP). The semantic definitions for the battery pass are taken from Battery Pass. The vocabulary is intended to be used to define a battery pass as a credentialSubject of an W3C-Credentials Verifiable Credentials Data Model v2.0. It can be used together with enterprise credentials to get full verifiable battery passes. In this case properties linking to enterprises must be identifiers which allow authentication of the owner, e.g. DIDs.
