"I voted in favour of the report on the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and Council on the indication by labelling and standard product information of the consumption of energy and other resources by energy-related products (recast). I feel that it is necessary to provide better information about products’ energy efficiency. Any advert promoting the technical features of refrigerators, washing machines or domestic ovens must indicate the product’s energy consumption.
Energy labelling helps consumers assess their energy costs when they are purchasing domestic electrical appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, tumble dryers or ovens. Manufacturers must indicate the products’ energy consumption, regardless of whether they are ‘more efficient’ (green) or ‘less efficient’ (pink) from an energy perspective.
Labelling will also be applied to commercial and industrial energy-using products, such as cold storage rooms or chilled display cabinets. Any advert must indicate energy consumption and energy savings.
Member States can adopt incentive measures, including tax credits for products which are extremely energy efficient."@en1
