U4E released its updated Motor Policy Guide and Model Regulations to support policy makers in developing countries and emerging economies in transitioning to energy-efficient motor systems.
The Motor Policy Guide presents the Integrated Policy Approach, including standards and regulations, Monitoring, Verification and Enforcement, financial delivery mechanisms, as well as environmental sustainability and health policies. A differentiated policy approach is applied, ensuring that both new equipment and the installed base are addressed.
The Model Regulation Guidelines offer a template framework for developing regulations that drive efficiency improvements. For electric motor requirements, both advanced and bridging levels are proposed, allowing economies a variety of options to consider based on their individual situation.
