Label Description

 

Implementation Background Mexico first adopted energy efficiency standards in 1995 under the National Commission for Energy Saving (CONAE). In 1995, Mexico also introduced the Sello FIDE, a voluntary energy efficiency endorsement label awarded by the Fideicomiso parael Ahorro de Energía Eléctrica (FIDE). In 2008, the Law for Sustainable Use of Energy transferred authority for energy efficiency standards from CONAE to the just-created National Commission for Energy Efficiency (CONUEE). CONUEE has established energy efficiency standards for a total of 15 product categories and seven system categories. CONUEE also regulates a mandatory comparative energy label for domestic appliances.Development of standards includes both the minimum energy performance levels (MEPS) required and the test procedure for determining the equipment performance. CONUEE is in charge of verifying compliance. Products that require mandatory comparative labels are rated as part of the MEPS process, and the labels for these products show the products’ efficiency levels in comparison to the MEPS level.
