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

Examples of energy-saving labeling

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.

8.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.
