Table 8 Summary of Testing Standards and Energy Efficiency Programs

Summary − International Standards and Programs

Testing standards are now available for standby power measurement, but no standards currently exist for energy consumption in-use.

Voluntary programs such as Energy Star only target standby energy use. The Energy Efficiency Index promoted in Europe covers in-use mode and at least 20% of European sets comply.

Any New Zealand MEPS scheme should be compatible with any overseas obligatory programs such as Japan’s “Top Runner” initiative.
