Collaborative research and development activities are undertaken within the 4E Annexes, 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.
Which digital technologies are most used with motor driven systems? How much energy can be saved thanks to digital solutions in motor systems? What are the main advantages and
4E EDNA and the Users TCP have published a joint report which examines the extent to which ‘usability issues’ at set up and operation prevent smart devices from effectively
A new IEC Academy webinar is upcoming which will present the coordination and alignment of energy efficiency standards for improving and optimising the energy consumption of electric driven machine
This Policy Brief summarises the key findings of a global survey on digitalisation in motor systems.
This joint report with the Users TCP investigates ‘usability’ issues associated with energy smart digital devices.
EMSA Newsflash including upcomming events, information on new regulations and EMSA projects, MST-Tool update.
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.
NewsGrowth 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 …
This is the world’s first comprehensive study of how to transition to a net zero energy system by 2050 while ensuring affordable energy supplies, universal energy access, and enabling robust growth.
