In addition to the energy efficiency improvements already achieved, the scope for further reducing the energy consumption of household refrigerating appliances is substantial.ĭirective 94/2/EC should be repealed and new provisions should be laid down by this Regulation in order to ensure that the energy label provides dynamic incentives for manufacturers to further improve the energy efficiency of household refrigerating appliances and to accelerate the market transformation towards energy-efficient technologies. The electricity used by household refrigerating appliances accounts for a significant share of total household electricity demand in the Union. Provisions on the energy labelling of household refrigerating appliances were established by Commission Directive 94/2/EC of 21 January 1994 implementing Council Directive 92/75/EEC with regard to energy labelling of household electric refrigerators, freezers and their combinations ( 2). Having regard to Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of on the indication by labelling and standard product information of the consumption of energy and other resources by energy-related products ( 1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,ĭirective 2010/30/EU requires the Commission to adopt delegated acts as regards the labelling of energy-related products representing significant potential for energy savings and having a wide disparity in performance levels with equivalent functionality. Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
