Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council
of 13 November 2008 on the indication by labeling and standard product
information of the consumption of energy and other resources by energy-
related products [COM(2008) 778 final—Non-published in the Official
Journal].
The Commission proposes a recast of Directive 92/75/EEC and an
extension of its scope, currently restricted to household appliances, to all
energy-related products, excluding means of transport. The Commission
defines energy-related products as those having an impact on energy con-
sumption during use. The Commission also proposes that products which
do not comply with minimum requirements in terms of energy efficiency
should not be eligible for public procurement or incentives. The recast of
the Energy Labeling Directive is among the priorities of the Sustainable
Consumption and Production and Sustainable Industrial Policy Action
Plan presented by the Commission in June 2008.
