Basic introduction

In order to improve the environmental performance of energy-consuming products and control ecological environmental pollution, the European Union officially issued the Directive 2009/125/EC on the ecological requirements for energy-related products on October 31, 2009, namely the ErP (Energy-related Products) Directive "Directive on the establishment of a framework for the eco-design requirements for energy-related products". It is a rewritten directive of the EuPhoria (Energy-using Products) Directive (2005/32/EC) and came into effect on November 10, 2009.

ErP Directive

In order to improve the EuP Directive 2005/32/EC and further expand its scope, the European Union officially issued the Directive 2009/125/EC on the ecological requirements for energy-related products on October 31, 2009. This directive stipulates the framework for the eco-design requirements of energy-related products (Energy-related Products). From November 20, 2009, ErP Directive 2009/125/EC replaced the original EuP Directive (2005/32/EC, 2008/28/EC).

The original IM based on the EuP Directive will be converted to IM of this directive at the same time.
