Scope: This ESSENTIAL describes the regulatory requirements for devices related to Eco design based on the Measures for the Administration of Energy Efficiency Labels (MAEEL) in China.

Stakeholders: Manufacturer
Legislation in force: The Measures for the Administration of Energy Efficiency Labels (MAEEL) No. 35 of 2016 lay down the requirements in relation to the China Energy Efficiency Label (CEL). The measures are mandatory since 1 June 2016. The Energy Efficiency Label is defined as a type of informational label attached to the product or its packaging, which indicates the energy efficiency grades, energy consumption and other indicators of energy-using products. The CEL system has legal support from the Law of Energy Conservation (2008), which sets out the legal basis for CEL as an important component of energy conservation regulations, outlining the management arrangements, contents, and penalties for the CEL system. The law was enacted 26 October 2018.
