Energy Labelling – EPREL ID

The purpose of energy labelling is to inform consumers about the energy efficiency of different products. It is intended to make it easier for consumers to choose energy-saving products.

The requirement for energy labelling is defined in the Energy Labelling Regulation (EU) 2017/1369, Article 3.

In Norway, the requirement is regulated by, among other things, the Product Labelling Act (Forbrukermerkeloven).

The energy labelling requirement applies to a wide range of products, including:

• Refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, dishwashers, dryers, and ovens

• Wood stoves and fireplaces

• Light bulbs, lighting fixtures, and LED lighting

• Water heaters, heat pumps, boilers

• Room heating fans and other energy-related products

• Solar modules and solar panels

NVE (Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate) is responsible for supervising compliance with energy labelling requirements.
