Energy star product testing and certification service

Energy star product testing and certification service

Label name: EnergyStar

Executing agency: US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

Implementation category: the voluntary label Energy Star energy labeling program was initiated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1992 to help consumers choose more energy-efficient electrical products to achieve the ultimate goal of environmental protection. Unlike the EnergyGuide mandatory energy efficiency labeling program administered by the U.S. Department of energy (DOE), energy star is a voluntary energy efficiency labeling program. Its remarkable effect is to help consumers buy appliances with higher energy efficiency, and its ultimate goal is to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. The "Energy Star" logo is a voluntary requirement, but in terms of energy conservation management and energy efficiency standards, it not only plays an important role in the United States, but also has become an international energy conservation symbol, which has been introduced by Canada, Japan, the European Union, Australia and many other countries. In particular, the "fourth edition of computer energy star standard", which represents the advanced mark in the field of computer energy conservation, implemented in July 2007, has become the market orientation of energy-saving products. Adding the "Energy Star" energy efficiency label has become the most influential and successful energy efficiency labeling system in the United States. The products with the label of "Energy Star" indicate that they have obtained the energy consumption index approved by the U.S. Department of energy and the environmental protection agency. Consumers mainly choose energy-saving products based on the label. At the same time, according to federal decrees, they can also obtain priority procurement from the government. The energy efficiency of appliances with energy star logo usually exceeds 15% of the federal energy efficiency standard, and some even reach 110%. In addition, it also controls the power consumption of the appliance in standby mode. The guarantee that buyers of appliances can get from it is that appliances with energy star logo have lower operating costs than other appliances without this logo. Applicable electrical products:

◆ household appliances: such as refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, dishwashers, dehumidifiers, etc;

◆ household electronic products: such as TV sets, video recorders, cordless phones, DVD products, etc;

◆ heating and refrigeration equipment: such as heat pumps, boilers, central air conditioners, etc;

◆ computers and office equipment: such as computers, monitors, printers, fax machines, copiers, all-in-one machines, etc;

◆ lighting equipment: such as compact fluorescent lamps, exit indicators, ceiling fans, etc;

◆ industrial and commercial products: such as transformers, power supplies, commercial frying pans, commercial refrigerators, etc;

◆ large commercial buildings and new houses, doors and windows, etc. In summary, the Yellow EnergyGuide mandatory energy efficiency label directed by the Department of energy (DOE) is generally used to compare the energy efficiency and operating cost of an electrical appliance model, while the energy star voluntary energy efficiency label program directed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is committed to helping consumers choose more energy-efficient products with the purpose of reducing emissions and protecting the environment.
