New Zealand Market Access for  Energy Efficiency Approvals 

The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA) is the regulatory body that gathers information, offers advice or help for manufacturers, importers, and retailers with meeting their requirements, and monitors compliance.

Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) specify the minimum level of energy performance that appliances, lighting, and electrical equipment must meet or exceed before they can be offered for sale or used for commercial purposes.

MEPS are mandatory for a range of products in New Zealand. These products must be registered through an online register and meet a number of legal requirements before they can be sold.

The Energy Rating Label (ERL) provides consumers with energy performance information at point-of-sale on a range of products that are regulated under the Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (GEMS) Act 2012. The ERL helps consumers to compare between similar product models through comparing their Star Rating and estimated annual energy consumption. More stars means more efficiency when compared to other models of the same size. The relevant product standard describes requirements for the label design and format.

A range of products are required under the GEMS Act to display an Energy Rating Label (ERL) at their point of sale in New Zealand, for example:

• Air Conditioners (single phase)

• Clothes washers

• Clothes dryers

• Dishwashers

• Televisions

• Refrigerators

• Freezers

• Computer monitors, etc.
