Relevant product lots for EPEE

≥ EPEE is actively involved in the development & implementation of the ecodesign and energy labelling measures for the product groups it covers with the objectives of:

• Increasing the overall energy efficiency of products • keeping the cost for consumers at a minimum • Maintaining room for innovation and competition

Every three years, the European Commission adopts a Working Plan, which sets out an indicative list of priority products to be explored for their ecodesign potential. The Commission is currently preparing the 2015-2017 Work Plan. EPEE members are impacted by a set of Ecodesign and Energy labelling Regulations.
