Standby power reduction program is to mandate the labeling of energy efficiency ratings for products that are generally widespread and consume a significant amount of energy, thereby promoting the production and technological development of high-efficiency products and encouraging consumers to purchase energy-saving products at the source.
This program requires the display of efficiency grade labels (grades 1-5) according to the energy consumption efficiency (usage) of target products, and prohibit the production and sale of products that do not meet the minimum consumption efficiency standards.
