Keep it truly European.
If you want batteries made here, not just branded here:

πŸ”‹ Fully produced in Europe:
πŸ‡«πŸ‡· Saft – France (industrial, lithium)
πŸ‡«πŸ‡· Arts Energy – France (rechargeables)
πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ Varta – Germany (AA/AAA, lithium, NiMH)
πŸ‡«πŸ‡· Forsee Power – France (EV packs)
πŸ‡«πŸ‡· BollorΓ© Blue Solutions – France (solid-state)

πŸ’Ά European-made, European-owned.
Not β€œassembled in EU” β€” actually built in France or Germany.
