Energy Efficient Products (EU)

This EU hub covers ecodesign and energy-labelling requirements for energy-related products — the framework behind minimum performance and labels.

What it is

This European Commission resource covers the EU framework for ecodesign and energy labelling of energy-related products — setting minimum performance requirements and the energy-label rules for many product groups, and connecting to the broader Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR).

Why it matters for compliance

For energy-related products, ecodesign sets minimum efficiency and design requirements, and energy labelling sets display and registration duties (via EPREL). Both are legal obligations that determine whether a product may be placed on the market and how it must be labelled.

How to use it

  • Check whether your product group has ecodesign and/or energy-labelling requirements.
  • Meet minimum performance requirements and register labels in EPREL.
  • Track how the ESPR extends ecodesign into new product groups.

Good to know

The ESPR broadens ecodesign well beyond energy — into durability, repairability, recycled content and the Digital Product Passport — so this area is expanding fast.
