\n \n Energy Class: What is it?<\/u>\n <\/strong>\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When referring to the Energy Class <\/strong> of an electric appliance, we mean how much energy-intensive the appliance is. In other words, the Energy class written on the Energy Label <\/strong>, specifies whether the electric appliance consumes a lot or a little electric power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n \n Energy Label: What is it?<\/u>\n <\/strong>\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the guidance of the European Union (New EU energy labels guidance applicable from 1 March 2021), all electric household appliances must be accompanied<\/strong> by an Energy Label, which mentions the Energy Class of the appliance. Such household appliances include refrigerators and freezers, air conditions, washing machines\/dishwashers, televisions, light bulbs, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n \n Energy Label: What has changed?<\/u>\n <\/strong>\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until recently, each Energy Label used the A+, A++ <\/strong>and A+++ <\/strong> system in order to indicate the Energy Class of the appliance. Since March 2021, this system was gradually replaced by a new system. This new system consists of a broad energy scale <\/strong> from<\/strong> A to G.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This specific change on Energy Labels aimed at<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

a) making it easier for customers to be informed about which appliance is more energy efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

b) encouraging the manufacturers to produce as more efficient and environmentally friendly electric products as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n \n New Energy Label: What does it include?<\/u>\n <\/strong>\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Energy Label consists of a 7-level scale <\/strong> from \u0391 to G, with \u0391<\/strong> being the optimal energy class whereas the G<\/strong> the lowest one. Therefore, through this scale, the consumer can identify how much energy each appliance consumes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, the new Energy Label has a QR<\/strong> <\/strong>Code<\/strong> which when scanned, one can access to further information concerning the product, from the European Product Register for the Energy Labelling (EPREL).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the new Energy Label shows the energy consumption in kilowatt hours (<\/strong>kWh<\/strong>)<\/strong> per year or per 1.000 hours or per 100 operating cycles, depending on the category that each appliance belongs to. For instance,<\/strong> as far as washing machines are concerned, there is the energy consumption in kWh\/100 operating cycles in ECO 40o-60o mode. For fridges, freezers and air conditioning, the consumption of kWh\/year will be mentioned while for screens (TV Monitors), the consumption of kWh\/1.000 hours of operation will be indicated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last but not least, the new Energy Label will provide further details<\/strong> concerning the appliance, such as the noise in decibel produced (for example, washing machines), the water consumption in liters\/cycle (washing machines) or the inches and pixels for screens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should be mentioned that there is no correspondence <\/strong> \u03c4between the old and the new energy scale. . In other words, an appliance that used to be of energy class A+++ does not mean that it will be of energy class A in the new scale. Such products could fall into energy class B or C in the new energy scale. Thus, very few products will belong to Energy Class A according to the new energy scale, without though changing their energy consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
