What is the appropriate, reproducible and accreditable way to test for the Energy Label for phones and tablets acc. to (EU)2023/1669 Annex IV point 1?

It is currently not in Commission's plans to develop and make available a testing tool for the EEI calculation under Regulation (EU) 2023/1669 (we had worked on a pilot app to test this concept, but the period of the pilot test expired). This might change, in case more stakeholders would be asking for it (for the time being, we only received very few requests).

All the information on the type of parameters/references to be used in the testing can be found:

Such an application might be developed in the framework of the preparation of the dedicated standard for testing the EEI parameter (to be developed in the upcoming months/years by the European Standardisation Organisations).
