Abstract
Ecodesign of Energy Using Products Directive (ED) and Energy Labelling
Directive (ELD) are recent legal instruments in European Union aiming to
improve the energy efficiency of appliances. While energy labels assist
consumers in choosing products which save energy, and thus money, ecodesign
is aimed to eliminate the least efficient appliances from the market by
establishing specific minimum requirements for specific product groups. The
aim is that the ecodesign and the energy labelling requirements be introduced
at the same time to facilitate implementation of the two measures and to
guarantee the longest possible validity for the energy label. Energy
labelling was addressed in REHVA Journal - March 2013 issue. In this article
the new Regulation on ecodesign of heaters is presented.
