The NEW EU Regulations

Same Product, Same Spec, Same Performance…New Energy Class

From 1st September 2021, new energy labelling and energy efficiency regulations came into force in the lighting industry. As part of these regulations manufacturers now have to include a new Energy Label on their packaging. The design of these labels will be modified to include the following details

• A new 'A to G' energy efficiency scale

• A QR code with a link to the product data stored in the EPREL database

You may notice that many products which previously would have had an 'A' rating may now have a much lower energy rating. However, it is important to understand that the product has not been downgraded and the specification has not changed. All that has changed is how energy ratings are calculated.

A transition period will be held until March 1, 2023 whilst the old label format is phased out.
