II-2(1). Energy Conservation Measures for the Industrial Sector
Measures for Factories/Business Establishments
Under the Energy Conservation Law(2)

On-site investigation (factory inspection) has been conducted since FY2001 on Type 1 Designated Energy Management Factories.
Compliance to the factory/business establishments standards is investigated to assess the need for guidance based on objectively set criteria.
Establishments that have an extremely poor level of energy use rationalization are instructed to prepare/submit a rationalization plan, implement the rationalization plan, and take other relevant steps.

II-2(2). Energy Conservation Measures for the Commercial/Residential Sector
Improving Equipment Efficiency with the Top Runner Program

The top runner program* was introduced in 1998 for energy conservation standards for home/office appliances and fuel economy standard for automotives.

The energy conservation effect is as compared with that of 1997 (and as compared with 1995 for automobiles, and 1998 for electric refrigerators / freezers)

Energy conservation effects in comparison with FY2000(against FY1999 figures for transformers)

* Top Runner Program:
The program seeks continuous improvement in energy conservation standard/performance among the latest products. E.g. Fuel economy standard of automobile, energy conservation standard for electric equipment etc.

Energy-Saving Labeling System

The energy-saving labeling system has been introduced to inform consumers of energy efficiency of home appliances and promote energy efficient products.

As of April 2004, the labeling is applied to the following 10 products: air conditioners, fluorescent lights, TV sets, electric refrigerators/freezers, space heaters, gas cooking appliances, gas water heaters, oil water heaters and electric toilet seats. The application is expanded to include computers, magnetic disk units and transformers in May 2004.

Energy Efficient Product Retailer Assessment System

In order to promote energy efficient products, it is essential to introduce measures for "retailers", who make the contact point between manufacturers and consumers.
Recognition should be extended to retailers that actively promote energy efficient products or provide appropriate energy conservation information.
The energy efficient product retailer assessment system was introduced in FY2003.

System target

Floor space of at least 1,000 square meters
At least 50% of sales coming from home appliances

Floor space of at least 1,000 square meters
At least 50% of sales coming from home appliances

Top “energy efficient product promotion stores” are selected each year and publicized along with their rankings.
Stores selected as top retailers are authorized to carry a special logo.
