PELP 涵蓋的能源消耗產品 (ECP),無論是否有規定的產品最低能源性能 (MEPP) 要求,都應貼有能源標籤,該標籤將指定產品型號的能效等級,如 PELP 實施指南所述。 如果頒佈,這些要求將在至少兩種普遍發行的報紙上發表後 15 天生效。

In August 2022, the Philippine Department of Energy issued this Draft Circular proposing to amend some sections of the Philippine Energy Labeling Program (PELP) Guidelines (DC2020-06-0015) and to also cover more energy consuming products under the program. 

Per this Draft Circular, the PELP would cover the following Energy Consuming Products (ECPs):

  • space cooling appliances;
  • refrigerating appliances;
  • multimedia appliances;
  • lighting products;
  • laundry appliances;
  • ironing appliances;
  • cooking and food processing appliances;
  • water heating appliances;
  • ICT Equipment; and
  • small appliances.

The aforementioned additions shall be included within the coverage of the PELP upon the recommendation of the Energy Utilization Management Bureau (EUMB).

PELP-covered ECPs, with or without a prescribed Minimum Energy Performance for Products (MEPP) requirement, shall bear the energy label which would specify the energy efficiency rating of the product model, as prescribed under the PELP Implementing Guidelines.

If enacted, these requirements would take effect 15 days following publication in at least two newspapers that are of general circulation.
