Hendren Global Group :Boiler Efficiency Regs
- 11 years ago
According to Energy and Environmental Management reports, new European boiler efficiency regulations could lead to savings of up to 10% of annual consumption in Europe.
Standards for energy efficiency will become more stringent through new measures in keeping with the EU’s commitment to reduce emissions and improve energy use in the homes over the coming years.
The changes in minimum specifications for energy efficiency will mean that homeowners could benefit from saving thousands on energy cost by 2020.
The new Ecodesign Directive will set the technical specifications for designing water heaters and boilers, with new labeling guidelines that will facilitate identification of efficiency of particular brands.
Homes operating boilers using gas or oil account for 17% of the total emissions in the EU. From 2015, the measures will see old-style boilers phased out across the region, with new appliances to be graded from ‘A double+’ to ‘G’, depending on their comparative efficiency ratings.
