EEPLIANT4 Work Package 2 on Refrigerating Appliances - Call for Tenders for Testing Laboratories

EEPLIANT4 WP2 CfT  

PROSAFE is launching an official Call for Tenders for the testing of Refrigerating Appliances (Household refrigerators and refrigerators with a direct-sale function) in the context of the EEPLIANT4 Concerted Action. More details can be found in the Official Call and Annexes below.

The Energy Efficiency Compliant Products 4 (EEPLIANT4) is an EU co-funded Concerted Action that builds on the success, good practices, and lessons learned from the three former EEPLIANT Actions since 2015 (EEPLIANT1, EEPLIANT2 and EEPLIANT3). The aim of this new Concerted Action is to support the implementation and enforcement of the EU Ecodesign and Energy Labelling regulations for energy-related products and durably improve market surveillance in these fields. The project is funded by the European Union under the Programme for the Environment and Climate Action (LIFE) with duration from May 2024 until April 2029.

EEPLIANT4 is coordinated by PROSAFE - The Product Safety Forum of Europe. The project consortium is composed of 26 Market Surveillance Authorities (MSAs) and 2 other govermental organisations from: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Turkey. They have joined forces to review and test the energy performance of eight product categories and market segments: refrigerating appliances, cooking appliances, vacuum cleaners, off-mode/network standby devices, tyres (C2, C3), electronic displays, air heating and cooling products, and solid fuel space heaters.
