EELA Webinar Series

The webinar will focus on the monitoring, verification, and enforcement of the minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) for energy efficient lighting and appliances. There are a lot of inefficient and substandard appliances in the SADC and EAC regions. The webinar will provide knowledge and information on the development, and implementation of minimum energy performance standards for appliances.

The responsible authorities will be empowered to conduct market surveillance for energy efficient appliances, and make efforts to reduce the inefficient and substandard products in the market. Substandard products affect the market for energy efficient appliances, economy, and environment.
