What are the rules of listing products with energy efficiency labels
In 2021, the energy efficiency label changed. Now it contains new energy efficiency rating, including the original scale from A to G. A+, A++, and A+++ classes were removed.
Currently, there are two formats of energy efficiency labels:
- the current A+, A++, and A+++ format for select appliances from the Home and Garden and the Business and Services categories, as well as the Audio, Video and Household Appliances subcategory
- the new label format for select appliances from the Electronics category and the Lighting subcategory — compliant with the 2021 EU regulation.
See the new energy efficiency label
You can find deatiled information about energy efficiency labels on the European Commission website.
For the categories and subcategories listed below, you are still obliged to provide information about the product energy efficiency class on a scale from A+++ to G.
Home and Garden
- Air Heaters
- Thermoventilators
- Boilers and Furnaces
- Boilers
- Water Heaters
- Recuperators
- Air Conditioners
- Fireplace Inserts

- Freestanding Kitchens
- Ovens
- Clothes Dryers

You can sell products from the categories listed above only with the new old energy efficiency label format. That is why you need to check if in your offers:
- you provided the correct title and description
- you provided the correct value of the Energy efficiency class parameter and — in the case of Air Conditioners — Cooling energy class (those parameters will become obligatory starting October 1, 2022
- you added correct attachments — the energy efficiency label (in PDF/JPG/PNG) and the product information card (in PDF).
The change applies to new products, particularly:
- washing machines (both built-in and freestanding)
- washer dryers (both built-in and freestanding)
- dishwashers (both built-in and freestanding)
- refrigerators (both built-in and freestanding)
- refrigerated display cabinets
- freezers (both built-in and freestanding)
- wine coolers (both built-in and freestanding)
- TV sets
- monitors.
Starting December 1, 2021, you can sell those products only labeled with the new format of the energy efficiency label. That is why you should make sure that:
- you provide the correct title and description
- you provide the correct value of the Energy efficiency class parameter (it has been obligatory since October 25, 2021)
- you add correct attachments — the energy efficiency label (in PDF/JPG/PNG) and the product information card (in PDF).
If the parameters or attachments in your offers are incorrect, edit them. To do it, open the My Assortment tab, and click [options] next to a given offer. Then, click [edit].
This change applies to:
- light sources — for example, light bulbs
- products where the light source is an integral element of the product — for example, LED strip lights
- products sold in a set with the light source — for example, pendant lamps sold with a compatible light bulb set.
What it means for you
Lighting placed on the market before September 1, 2021, has to be labeled with the new format of the energy efficiency label.
How to list the offer correctly
No matter if you sell lighting with the new or the old energy efficiency label, make sure that:
- you provide the correct title and description — according to the information provided on the efficiency label
- you provide the correct value of the Energy efficiency class parameter
- you add correct attachments — the energy efficiency label (in PDF/JPG/PNG) and the product information card (in PDF).
If the parameters or attachments in your offers are incorrect, edit them. To do it, open the My Assortment tab, and click [options] next to a given offer. Then, click [edit].
What buyers will see
We have launched new features that help buyers check the energy efficiency information in a fast and convenient way. All you need to do is add an attachment with the energy efficiency label and the product informationc card to your offer. Once you do it, next to the product photo on the offer list, as well as in the offer, the buyers will see:
- an image with the energy efficiency class. When they click on it, they will download the energy efficiency label attached to the offer
- a URL to the product technical specifications.
