The CE Marking just means that a product meets all applicable new approach 
directives.  I've seen it on inflatable toys, and I'll bet my next paycheck 
that the EMC Directive was not considered.  There is, however, a toy directive 
and they met the essential requirements for that one.

There are several directives where the CE mark would be required - depends
on end-use equipment/environment and battery capacity.

Apply EMC directive to the battery itself where uControllers is embedded,
otherwise, the EMCD/tests are applied to the charger where specific battery
models are specified in the report and D of C.

Is what I do correct for all possible combinations of
batteries/chargers/equipment?
  No
Is what I do required by the customer?
 Yes

I noticed a lithium battery with a CE marking on it.

Is EMC part of that CE Mark? Are there any EMC standards/requirements for
smart batteries?

Thanks,
