ENER Lot 21 - Air heating and cooling products

Basic information

State of play

The review of ENER Lot 21 was started in early 2023. VHK was appointed as consultant for the review study and has reached out to Eurovent for some data collection. A first stakeholder meeting should take place later this year. In addition, a short information session is planned for the Ecodesign Consultation Forum meeting of 14 December 2023.

Eurovent input for the European Commission Guideline Document on the European Commission Regulation 2016 2281

With this paper, Eurovent and its Members would like to provide input for the European Commission Guideline Document on the European Commission Regulation 2016/2281. Specifically, within this paper the requirements set for the following products are analysed:

Eurovent-EPEE joint position on lot 6-21

EPEE and Eurovent would first like to emphasise the need to consider the incompatibility of the proposed Ecodesign requirements and the upcoming revision of the F-gas regulation which creates uncertainty for manufacturers. If a ban or phase down of HFC is enforced, all or most of the product ranges will need to be re-designed. For example, it is currently uncertain if the proposed energy efficiencies and required safety can be achieved with alternative refrigerants.

Legislation

This section provides a focused overview of the ongoing European legislation concerning Ecodesign requirements for air heating products, cooling products, high temperature process chillers and fan coil units. Follow the ongoing review process of ENER Lot 21 in detail, with access to all related documents, including legal texts, Commission communications, studies, guidelines, policies on standardisation, and more. The database contains the most recent publications but also allows you to go back in time.

The regulation sets minimum energy efficiency and environmental performance standards for air heating products, cooling products, high-temperature process chillers, and fan coil units. It aims to reduce energy use and emissions, covering efficiency thresholds, NOx limits, labelling, and product information. Manufacturers must comply with testing methods and ensure transparent documentation to support sustainable design and informed consumer choices.
