| Label Description | ||||
| Implementation Background | The Netherlands notified the EC in 1992 of a desire to introduce MEPS for Refrigerators.The GEA produced a report with recommended MEPS levels.This was approved in 1996 and took effect in September 1999. However the directive is specific to refrigerators and freezers, unlike the framework energy labelling legislation, which means that MEPS for other appliances need to be presented separately to the Council of Ministers and the Parliament for approval. Hence there are currently only four products with mandatory MEPS so far. On the other hand, the EC is working toward improved efficiency through voluntary negotiated agreements for a range of products. | |||
