ErP
ErP (Energy related Products), that is, energy-related products, are closely related to many important environmental impact factors in all aspects of their production, distribution, and use life cycles, such as the consumption of other raw materials and natural resources (such as water), waste production, environmental pollution caused by the discharge of harmful substances into the environment, and related climate change caused by energy consumption.
More Introduction
1. EU ErP certification
ErP (Energy related Products), that is, energy-related products, are closely related to many important environmental impact factors in all aspects of their production, distribution, and use life cycles, such as the consumption of other raw materials and natural resources (such as water), waste production, environmental pollution caused by the discharge of harmful substances into the environment, and related climate change caused by energy consumption.
2. The relationship between ErP and CE marking
The ErP Directive stipulates that energy-consuming products included in the implementation measures must be affixed with the CE mark before they can enter the EU market. Before obtaining the CE mark, the manufacturer or its authorized representative should take measures to ensure that the product has passed the conformity assessment in accordance with the content and procedures of the implementation measures specification, prepare technical documents related to the product conformity assessment, and issue an EC declaration of conformity.
3. The importance of ErP certification
The purpose of the European Union's ErP Directive is to define the environmental protection design requirements of energy-consuming products through the development of a coherent and comprehensive legal framework, in order to achieve the following objectives:
1. Ensure the free circulation of energy-consuming products within the EU;
2. Improve the overall environmental performance of these products to protect the environment;
3. Contribute to the stable supply of energy and enhance the competitiveness of EU economies;
4 Protect the interests of industry and consumers.
4. Scope of ErP certified products
EU regulations: All electrical and electronic products sold in Europe must be required to meet ErP testing or ErP certification requirements (European energy consumption related product energy saving requirements)
