Abstract

Energy-efficiency labels and standards for appliances, equipment and lighting are being implemented in many countries around the world as a cornerstone of energy policy portfolios. They have a potential for very large energy savings and are very cost effective. Once appliance labeling and standards programs have been implemented, it is necessary to evaluate their effectiveness. In this paper, we describe the types of activities that need to occur in the evaluation of appliance labeling and standards programs.
