New EU energy labels are Making Huge Impacts in Ireland

It’s very difficult to find out the more energy efficient products with the existing energy rating system. It ranges from D to A+++ where these pluses creates a doubt in the minds of consumers.

People may think that an ‘A’ rated device is just a decent machine, which may seriously affect the sales of that particular product. The EU has stepped in the issue correctly and decides to implement a new energy rating from March 1 onwards.

The new rating system ranges from A to G, which is very suitable to fix a machine to a grade and it also makes more clarity in the minds of people. This may change the ratings already given to the machines and people may be surprised on which rating their favourite machine will get.

Experts opine that the older system no longer suits the purpose and the new system allows simple comparison among products and makes it more easier to choose more lasting ones. The pluses makes it more difficult to understand the price difference and this system was poorly understood by the common people.
