Division 7 Future specification revisions

EPA and the European Commission reserve the right to change the specification should technological and/or market changes affect its usefulness to consumers, industry, or the environment. In keeping with current policy, revisions to the specification are arrived at through stakeholder discussions.

EPA and the European Commission will periodically assess the market in terms of energy efficiency and new technologies. As always, stakeholders will have an opportunity to share their data, submit proposals, and voice any concerns. EPA and the European Commission will strive to ensure that the Tier 1 and 2 specifications recognize the most energy-efficient models in the marketplace and reward those Partners who have made efforts to further improve energy efficiency.
