GB 12021.2-2025 Maximum Allowable Values of Energy Consumption and Energy Efficiency Grade for Household Refrigerating Appliance

Policy Details

The new standard revises Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for household refrigerators and semi-conductor refrigerators with volume no greater than 60 L. The revised MEPS significantly raises the minimum energy efficiency thresholds for mainstream refrigerators and freezers, tightening the requirements from Grade 5 (Total Energy Efficiency Index, TEEI: 90%) through to Grade 1+ (TEEI: 40%). For all refrigerators excluding semiconductor models, the Total Energy Efficiency Index (TEEI) will now serve as the sole metric for energy efficiency. See more
