Hi Kaz, I agree with Jon. However there are battery standards that you may consider meeting if you plan on CE marking the battery so it can be imported and sold in Europe as an accessory to your device. I just went through this with a recent medical product I worked on. There are also requirements for battery operated MEE in 60601-1-2; 2001 that you may want to consider. Best of luck.

I can find no reference to any specific battery standards in Annex L or Annex ZA. Clause 56.7 of the standard does have general requirements for batteries.
