EQUIPMENT ENERGY EFFICIENCY (E3) PROGRAM
The Equipment Energy Efficiency (E3) program is a cross jurisdictional program through which the Australian Government, states and territories and the New Zealand Government collaborate to deliver a single, integrated program on energy efficiency standards and energy labelling for equipment and appliances.
Program Objectives:
To reduce energy bills for households and businesses in a cost effective way by driving improvements to the energy efficiency of new appliances and equipment sold;
To improve the energy efficiency of new appliances and equipment that use energy and to also improve the energy performance of products that have an impact on energy consumption; and
To reduce appliance and equipment related greenhouse gas emissions through a process which complements other actions by jurisdictions.
The E3 Program undertakes a range of activities to improve the energy efficiency of appliances and equipment sold in Australia and New Zealand. These include energy rating labelling, setting minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) and education and training.
The Energy Rating Label is part of the Equipment Energy Efficiency (E3) Program. This short video explains how the E3 Program works.
