Energy Efficient Products

Who is to provide energy labels to dealers? Under which formats?

The supplier shall deliver printed labels, including rescaled labels and product information sheets, to the dealer free of charge, promptly and in any event within five working days upon the dealer's request in accordance with Article 3 (2).

As an alternative to supplying the product information sheet (in a printed form) with the product, the specific Energy Labelling act may provide that it is sufficient for the supplier to enter the parameters of such product information sheet into the product database. In such a case, the supplier shall provide however the product information sheet in printed form to the dealer on request.

The supplier shall ensure that products that are placed on the market are accompanied, for each individual unit, free of charge, with accurate printed labels and with product information sheets in accordance with this regulation and the relevant delegated acts.

Dealers obligations are set under Articles 5 and 6 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1369.

 

Note that the European Commission cannot provide a legally binding interpretation of the EU legislation, as this is the sole competence of the European Court of Justice. Any remarks from the European Commission services are without prejudice to the position the Commission might take should related cases arise in a procedure before the Court of Justice.
