Standard and Labeling Programme

The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) initiated the Standards & Labeling programme for equipment and appliances in 2006 to provide the consumer an informed choice about the energy saving and thereby the cost saving potential of the relevant marketed product.

• The energy efficiency labeling programmes under BEE are intended to reduce the energy consumption of appliance without diminishing the services it provides to consumers.
• The ‘Star Rating’ is linked to the Standards and Labelling database and provides the user a platform to compare personalized energy saving devices across the same class and get a real-time feedback from consumers and other stakeholders so they can make an informed purchase decision.
