EEPLIANT2 Fourth Newsletter

EEPLIANT2 is funded by the European Union (EU) under the Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation programme. This Action is a unique undertaking that addresses the challenge of building a common approach to the market surveillance of Energy Labelling and Ecodesign within sixteen EU Member States.
The great added value of EEPLIANT2 comes from, on one hand, the shared inspection procedures and joint sampling and testing programme, and, on the other hand, the harmonisation of the evaluation of results and enforcement actions taken by the seventeen market surveillance authorities (MSAs).
Three product sectors are targeted: household refrigerating appliances, professional refrigerating cabinets and network standby with the goal to ensure that non-compliant products are identified and withdrawn from the EU Single Market. The project is coordinated by PROSAFE, a non-profit NGO based in Brussels.

EEPLIANT3 First Press Release

The largest concerted Market Surveillance Action on EU product efficiency legislation ever funded by the European Union (EU) - EEPLIANT3 - has been officially launched with a conference held on 19 June 2019 in Brussels, at PROSAFE.

29 partners from 20 EU Member States and Turkey joined forces to cooperate in EEPLIANT3, the EU-funded sequel of the EEPLIANT1 and EEPLIANT2 projects. It aims at improving the implementation of EU energy labelling and ecodesign regulations and the operation of the EU Single market by identifying free-riding non-compliant products to the benefit of the European consumer and law-abiding manufacturers. The project will cooperate closely with the two Administrative Cooperation Groups (ADCO) on energy labelling and ecodesign, with each project Activity (Work Package) being led by a Market Surveillance Authority (MSA) and coordinated by one of three facilitating organisations: PROSAFE, Austrian Energy Agency and vores bureau.

EEPLIANT2 Second Newsletter

Under the coordination of PROSAFE, national Market Surveillance Authorities work together under the EEPLIANT2 project to ensure that non-compliant products are identified and withdrawn from the EU market. Testing and document inspections targeting three product sectors (household and professional refrigerating appliances, and network standby) is already being performed in order to achieve the expected impacts, particularly to increase the compliance rates with the respective energy efficiency requirements.

EEPLIANT2 First Newsletter

Between September 2017 and February 2020, the participants of the EEPLIANT2 Action will review and test energy performance of household refrigerating appliances, professional refrigeration products, and the energy consumption resulting from appliances on network standby with the key objective to help deliver the intended economic and environment benefits of the EU Energy Labelling and Ecodesign Directives by increasing the rates of compliance with their energy efficiency requirements.
