Overview of Minimum Energy Performance Standards worldwide
EMSA just published a world map showing Minimum Energy Performance Standards for electric motors in effect.
Governments with effective, mature, energy efficiency programmes covering a diverse range of appliances and equipment.
National and regional governments are represented by entities responsible for energy efficiency policy.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) works with governments and industry to shape a secure and sustainable energy future for all.
Stay up to date with the latest news stories from the IEA below:
Collaborative research and development activities are undertaken within the 4E Platforms, connecting governments with experts and industry. Each target technology areas with a large potential for energy savings where a sustained focus builds knowledge and networks.
EMSA just published a world map showing Minimum Energy Performance Standards for electric motors in effect.
EMSA published an overview of relevant international IEC & ISO and national/regional standards for electric motors, Variable Speed Drives as well as pumps, fans and air compressors.
The Leonardo Motors Academy will host a webinar on 5 November 2024 dedicated to an overview of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for electric motor systems worldwide.
This report presents a comparison and demonstration of measurement equivalency of the five Nucleus laboratories that constitute the core of Interlaboratory Comparison 2023 (IC2023). The five Nucleus labs are
These comments were prepared and submitted to Members of three Expert Working Groups investigating temporal light modulation: CIE TC 2-89, IEC TC34 WG5 and IES LM-90 WG. These comments
The 4E PECTA DC-Wallbox pre-scoping study aims to enhance understanding of DC-Wallboxes and pro-vides an overview of the current DC charging market, emphasizing the efficiencies of commercially avail-able chargers
The accurate and repeatable testing of products is a basic requirement for energy efficiency programmes and therefore improving tests for variable capacity air conditioners & heat pumps is important. It is particularly timely given the growth in these types of products. 4E is examining potential changes to relevant test procedures culminating in a round robin within 4E countries which will be completed at the end of 2022.
As part of an ongoing investigation, 4E launched a new project in 2021 to better understand the real and current barriers to regulatory policies for systems in 4E jurisdictions. Based on three case studies, the project will focus on Australia, Canada, the EU and Japan.
Additionally, the project will quantify the total savings potential from the implementation of policies for energy-using systems.
This global assessment of the benefits of standards and labelling programmes is the result of collaborative research between 4E and the IEA. Published in 2021 during the lead-in to COP26 it supports the case for increased investment in these programmes to deliver on international climate commitments.
This report provides the strategic vision of experts from the IEA Technology Collaboration Programmes (TCPs) on how to help achieve some of the most impactful short-term milestones for the buildings sector outlined in the IEA’s Net
Growth in energy use by household appliances shows no signs of decelerating, yet only one-third of appliance energy use today is covered by mandatory performance standards.
Like other forms of traditional flexibility, demand-side flexibility is largely centralised and restricted to large industrial or commercial consumers. 2019 was a mixed year for demand-response …
