Mandatory Energy Efficiency Labelling Scheme

Proposition

As part of the Government's ongoing efforts to promote the efficient use and conservation of energy, we propose to introduce a mandatory energy efficiency labelling scheme to achieve the following objectives–

1. to increase public awareness of the importance of using energy-efficient products;
2. to provide consumers with more energy-efficient products; and
3. to provide incentive to product suppliers to market more energy-efficient products.

Public Consultation

A three-month public consultation on the proposed scheme was carried out in 2005.
