PART 8Implementing measures

Power of the Secretary of State to make implementing measures

22.(1) Subject to paragraphs (3) and (6), where the Secretary of State is satisfied that a product meets the criteria listed in paragraph (2), the Secretary of State must, by regulations, make an implementing measure in respect of that product.

(2) The criteria referred to in paragraph (1) are that—

(a)the product, according to the most recently available figures and considering the quantities placed on the market or put into service, has a significant environmental impact within the United Kingdom; and

(b)the product presents significant potential for improvement in terms of its environmental impact without entailing excessive costs, taking into account in particular—

(i)the absence of other relevant legislation or failure of market forces to address the issue properly; and

(ii)the existence of a wide disparity in the environmental performance of products available on the United Kingdom market with equivalent functionality.

(3) The Secretary of State must not make an implementing measure in respect of a product that is the subject of self-regulation where such self-regulation—

(a)meets at least the criteria in Annex 8 to the Directive, read subject to the modifications in regulation 23(1)(a) and (d); and

(b)is expected to achieve the Secretary of State’s ecodesign policy objectives more quickly or at lesser expense than an implementing measure.

(4) Before exercising the power in paragraph (1), the Secretary of State must—

(a)consider the life cycle of the product and all its significant environmental aspects, including its energy efficiency, and the feasibility of their improvement;

(b)consider any relevant legislation;

(c)consider any self-regulation which meets the criteria in Annex 8 to the Directive read subject to the modifications in regulation 23(1)(a) and (d);

9.  Where a label is introduced or rescaled, the Secretary of State must ensure that—

(a)no products are expected to fall into energy efficiency class A at the moment of the introduction of the label and the estimated time within which a majority of models are expected to fall into that class is at least 10 years later; or

(b)where technology is expected to develop more rapidly than described in subparagraph (a), no products are expected to fall into energy efficiency classes A and B at the moment of the introduction of the label.

10.  Where a product-specific measure introduces or rescales a label, the product-specific measure—

(a)must require a class to be shown on the label of new product units in grey, as specified in the product-specific measure where the product units belong to a product group in which models belonging to energy efficiency class E, F or G are no longer allowed to be placed on the market or put into service because of an implementing measure within the meaning given in the Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products Regulations 2010; and

(b)by way of derogation from point (19) of Article 2, may require fewer energy efficiency classes to be shown on the label, if for technical reasons it is impossible to define seven energy efficiency classes that correspond to significant energy and cost savings from a customer’s perspective, and provided that the dark green to red spectrum of the label is retained.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of these Regulations)

These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers conferred by section 8(1) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16) in order to address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively and other deficiencies (in particular under paragraphs (a), (d), (f) and (g) of section 8(2) of the 2018 Act) arising from the withdrawal of the UK from the European Union, and under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972.

These Regulations make amendments to legislation in the field of ecodesign and energy labelling for energy-related products. Schedule 1 amends the Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products Regulations 2010, including conferring a power for the Secretary of State to set ecodesign requirements in paragraph 12; Schedule 2 amends product-specific ecodesign-related regulations; Schedule 3 amends the Energy Information Regulations 2011; Schedule 4 amends Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 setting a framework for energy labelling including conferring a power for the Secretary of State to introduce and rescale energy labels in paragraph 11; and Schedule 5 amends product-specific energy labelling-related regulations.

The net costs imposed on business, the voluntary sector and the public sector by these Regulations have been assessed as being less than £5m in any year and therefore a full impact assessment has not been prepared.
