Communiqué list

Notice for March 4

This notification is to inform stakeholders that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is releasing the Draft 2, Version 2.0 ENERGY STAR Laboratory Grade Refrigerators and Freezers specification.

In response to the Draft 1, Version 2.0 proposal, EPA received numerous comments regarding the criteria. The Agency has taken that feedback into account in developing the Draft 2 proposal and has referred to the comments received and responded to them through the Draft 2 specification. In particular, the Agency assessed the need to further segment the High-Performance Refrigerator and Freezer markets based on door type and defrost type. In addition, the ultra-low temperature freezer category was split into two bins to reflect differences in energy consumption of those products. EPA is also proposing energy allowances for High Performance products that certify to NSF 456. In reaching the criteria levels proposed in Draft 2, the EPA reviewed all available data sources where products were tested to the ENERGY STAR test method to allow for an appropriate comparison of products. The updated data set (PDF, 35.4KB) that reflects new data has been released with this draft. EPA continued to look to differentiate the market and based on the feedback received from Draft 1 believes that this proposal differentiates the top performers in the market while maintaining a good selection of eligible products for purchasers. Finally, EPA notes that there was interest in expanding the scope of this specification to include combination refrigerator/freezers and cryogenic freezers. However, as of this time, the Agency has no data with which to determine criteria and therefore has continued to exclude these products from scope.

A stakeholder webinar will be held to answer any questions on this specification on March 7, 2024, from 1-3 pm EST. Please register by completing the ENERGY STAR V2.0 Lab Grade R/F Draft 2 Specification Webinar form if you would like to attend.

Comments on the Version 2.0 Draft Specification may be submitted to labgraderefrigeration@energystar.gov by March 19, 2024. All comments will be posted to the ENERGY STAR Product Development website unless the submitter requests otherwise. Stakeholder comments, previous draft specifications, and related materials are available on the ENERGY STAR Laboratory Grade Refrigerators and Freezers Specification Development webpage.

For any questions related to this specification, please contact Ryan Fogle, Fogle.Ryan@epa.gov or Annie Williams, Annie.Williams@icf.com. For test method questions, please contact Bryan Berringer, Department of Energy (DOE), at Bryan.Berringer@ee.doe.gov.

Please email energystar@nrcan-rncan.gc.ca if you have any other questions.

Notice for February 13

The ENERGY STAR Boilers Version 3.0 Specification has been revised to update the test method reference to 10 CFR Part 430 Subpart B, Appendix EE in coordination with changes to the code of federal regulations (CFR). The test method referenced in the specification prior to this update was 10 CFR Part 430 Subpart B, Appendix N. However, on March 13, 2023, a final rule was issued pertaining to the test procedure for boilers, which resulted in moving provisions for consumer boilers to this new appendix EE. Appendix EE includes all provisions previously included in appendix N relevant to consumer boilers, with no substantive modifications.

More information concerning ENERGY STAR Boilers Version 3.0 Specification can be found on the ENERGY STAR Boiler development page.

Notice for December 11

This notification is to inform stakeholders of amendments to the ENERGY STAR Version 9.0 Televisions Specification to align with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Uniform Test Method for Measuring the Energy Consumption of Television Sets incorporated in Appendix H to Subpart B of 10 CFR Part 430, published in a Final Rule on March 15, 2023 and effective starting April 14, 2023. Updates to Appendix H correspond with the recently finalized industry-developed test method, ANSI/CTA-2037-D: Determination of Television Set Power Consumption.

Products with test results from the ANSI/CTA-2037-C test method and already certified to version 9.0, will not be affected by this update, and will not need to be retested to maintain their ENERGY STAR certification. All new testing shall be based on Appendix H to Subpart B of 10 CFR Part 430 (i.e., ANSI/CTA-2037-D). Manufacturers with products already certified to the version 9.0 specification are encouraged to work with their certification bodies to update their reported values consistent with the results from the updated Appendix H to Subpart B of 10 CFR Part 430.

The version 9.1 draft specification has been amended to account for this updated test method. These proposed updates include:

• Updating, adding, and removing definitions
• removing requirements for previously defined modes
• revising the power measurement interpolation instructions for models that would otherwise be certified at a dynamic luminance level below given thresholds
• updating the applicable test procedures to reference Appendix H to Subpart B of 10 CFR Part 430

All comments on the version 9.1 draft specification will be posted to the ENERGY STAR Product Development website unless the submitter requested otherwise. Stakeholder comments, previous drafts of the specification, and related materials are available on the ENERGY STAR Televisions Version 9 Specification Development webpage.

For any questions related to televisions, please contact televisions@energystar.gov.

Please email energystar@nrcan-rncan.gc.ca if you have any other questions.

Notice for December 8

Between January 8 to March 8, 2024, ENERGY STAR Canada Participants will be invited to apply for one or more awards.

Let us recognize your outstanding 2023 achievements in promoting ENERGY STAR certified products, commercial and institutional buildings, and new homes in Canada!

The ENERGY STAR team wants to remind all applicants that special attention will be given to the following when evaluating applications:

1. Proper usage of the marks and labelling
2. Adherence to the ENERGY STAR brand book
3. Compliance with ENERGY STAR terminology

Further, it is recommended to review your websites to ensure proper brand usage.

Please visit our Awards page for more information.

Notice for December 7

We are pleased to announce the release of the ENERGY STAR Draft 1 Test Method to Determine Room Air Conditioner Heating Mode Performance.

The development of this test procedure is being undertaken with the intention of eventually adding it to the test requirements for the ENERGY STAR Room Air Conditioners specification. Brand owner Participants will be able to update their certification to include heating mode test results for ENERGY STAR reverse cycle models once the test procedure is final. The heating mode efficiency will also be included in the ENERGY STAR dataset.

Key elements for comment for the proposed Draft 1 Test Procedure include:

• Definitions of Active and Passive Defrost
• Distinction between mild, cool, and cold climate heat pumps
• Test conditions for variable-speed units
• Testing setup requirements and pre-test UUT configuration
• Single speed and variable speed heat pump heating mode tests
• HEER equation, building load line, and fractional hours within heating season bins

Comment Submittal

Participants were requested to share written feedback by Tuesday, January 9, 2024, to appliances@energystar.gov.

Participant engagement is a vital ingredient in the success of the ENERGY STAR program, and we look forward to working with all parties to develop the ENERGY STAR Heating Mode Test Procedure for Room Air Conditioners. 

All comments will be posted to EPA’s ENERGY STAR Room Air Conditioner Version 5 Product Development webpage unless the submitter requests otherwise.

Stakeholder Webinar

A webinar will be hosted on Tuesday, December 12, 2023, from 1-3pm Eastern Time to engage with Participants on the content included in the test procedure. To register for the webinar, click here.

Notice for December 4

This notification is to inform stakeholders that the Version 5.0 ENERGY STAR Room Air Conditioners Specification came into effect October 30, 2023. As of this date, only products certified to Version 5.0 and submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by EPA-recognized certification bodies (CB), using the Version 5.0 web service, will be displayed on the ENERGY STAR certified product list.

For questions related to this specification, please contact appliances@energystar.gov. CBs should direct questions concerning the submittal of Version 5.0 certified room air conditioners to Certification@energystar.gov.
