Product Certification Databases

Governments around the world maintain public databases to serve as authoritative sources of information about the energy performance and other characteristics of products in select markets.

Product databases can be used for multiples purposes, including as:

Certification databases, to collect national or regional information on products that are compliant or non-compliant with product energy efficiency policies
Product databases for modelling purposes, enabling governments to connect sales and efficiency trends to help inform the development of future policies
Consumer information databases, to support consumers in making smart and informed purchasing decisions
