Energy Using Products Directive
Mark Shayler
![Page 2: Energy Using Products Directive Mark Shayler](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56812ebc550346895d945c56/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Why?
?• Rising level of electrical waste• Shift in legislation• Waste disposal and clean-up costs• Resource efficiency
– One world living– EU three worlds– US six worlds
• Corporate social responsibility• Chemical safety• Extension of producer responsibility packaging, WEEE
and RoHS• Watch out for Batteries!!!

Less oil - energy
• Peak oil• Demand to rise 50% by 2030• Transition movement

Eco-design of Energy Using Products Framework Directive:
A Brief Outline
• Provides for setting of eco-design requirements which EuPs must fulfil before they can be placed on the market
![Page 5: Energy Using Products Directive Mark Shayler](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56812ebc550346895d945c56/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Why?
• Global climate change• Massive growth of energy using
products• Poor energy efficiency in many products • Big gap between best and worst
performers• Legal drivers - shift from production to
lifetime of a product

Example Possible Improvements
• Spotlights– Halogen - 2,000 hrs - 20 W– LED 50,000 hrs - 4 W
• Fridge freezers - could halve energy use in 20 years according to MTP.
• Standby - many items in off mode (not standby) use 4 watts.
• Manufacturers to provide consumers with information on the role that they can play in the sustainable use of that product and the ecological profile of the product.

Opportunities to reduce energy use
![Page 8: Energy Using Products Directive Mark Shayler](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56812ebc550346895d945c56/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Scope• In principle - any energy using
products……except for means of
transport
• Also covers parts which are intended to be incorporated into energy using products.

Products which…
Represent a significant volume of sales and trade,
indicatively more than 200,000 units a year within the
Community
and
have a significant environmental impact
and
present significant potential for improvement without
entailing excessive costs

Implementing Measures• Issued over next few years. First one (power loss in standby?? in
next 12 months)
• Generic eco-design requirements such as:– emissions to air and water– other forms of pollution– waste generation
• Specific eco-design requirements will be introduced for selected environmental impacts.– Water use in manufacture– Energy efficiency in use– Water use in use-phase

Implementing Measures (2)
– The entire life-cycle of the product shall be considered.
– The performance of the product, from the perspective of the user, shall not be significantly affected.
– There should be no significant negative impact on consumers (i.e. affordability and life-cycle cost)
– No significant negative impact on manufacturing competitiveness
– Shall not impose any propriety technology on the manufacturer
– No excessive administrative burden

What could EuP change?
– Materials used in products– Energy consumption– Rate of use of consumables (water
etc.)– Product design– Product design processes– Purchasing specification– User information– Distribution

Actions• What categories are you involved
with?• What is the largest environmental
impact of your products?• How can you prove this?• Can it be reduced?• Watch stand-by losses – likely to
be first.

Legislation• Eco-design for Energy using Products
Regulations, 2007• Came into force 11 August 2007• Allow for further Implementing Measures
for future products• Currently covers Boilers, fridges/freezers
and ballasts for fluorescent lights• Government Department is Defra• Enforcement bodies are local trading
standards
