Energy Labelling (delegated acts) procedure PROCESS Voluntary Agreements procedure Notify Voluntary Agreement & report to European Parliament & Council (no right of scrutiny) Adoption by European Commission of Report & VA (written procedure) Publication Report & Agreement & Letter to signatories 12 week Open Public consultation 4 week Feedback mechanism Ecodesign (implementing acts) procedure Preparatory/ review study Consultation Forum on draft measures/ proposed voluntary agreement Impact assessment on draft measures/ proposed voluntary agreement Inter- service consultation Notification To World Trade Organisation Regulatory Committee (discussion and vote) Scrutiny European Parliament & Council Adoption by European Commission Publication in the Official Journal Energy Labelling (delegated acts) procedure Expert Group Member States (discussion) Adoption by European Commission Objection European Parliament & Council Publication in the official journal At least 4 years

Environmental impacts Largest environmental impact usually energy consumption: Energy efficiency Pull Target = least life cycle cost Minimum energy efficiency requirement Push BAN Average product Other regulated environmental impacts: Noise, to avoid that efficiency improvements would be at the cost of higher noise emissions Refrigerants - Lower efficiency for refrigerants GWP ≤ 150, to stimulate the market to use low GWP refrigerants

Challenges for EU wide regulations Europe is diverse Ecodesign is based on EU averages, i.e. average purchase costs, electricity prices, average efficiencies, etc. Regulations need to protect all EU citizens including: Consumers with low incomes People who work at small and medium size enterprises Society as a whole with regards to climate change Etc. A good balance needs to be found!

Other challenges Market surveillance: Strong market surveillance ensures compliance with the regulations. Today each member state of the EU is responsible for market surveillance in their country. Projects are being set up to coordinate the market surveillance actions and improve compliance Resource efficiency requirements (recyclability, reparability, upgradability, durability, etc.): Commitment to better contribute to objectives of circular economy. No single methodology to set requirements. => Standards are under preparation and ideally the methodology to set ecodesign requirements should be updated.
