PartagerL'AHRI demande à la Cour d'appel des Etats-Unis de revoir les normes relatives au froid commercial mises en place par le département de l'énergie (DOE) (en anglais)
L'Institut sur le conditionnement de l'air, le chauffage et le froid (AHRI) affirme que les nouvelles normes d'économie d'énergie pour les équipements de froid commercial mises en place par le département de l’énergie (DOE) pourraient être impossibles à respecter.
The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) claims that the Department of Energy’s (DOE) new energy conservation standards for commercial refrigeration equipment may be impossible to meet.
The AHRI has filed a petition for review in the US Court of Appeals in response to the DOE’s final rule issued on March 28, 2014 regarding energy conservation standards for commercial refrigeration equipment. The rule includes maximum daily energy consumption values as a function of either refrigerated volume or total display area for various equipment classes. The new standards will apply to equipment manufactured in, or imported into, the United States on or after March 27, 2017.
AHRI President and CEO Stephen Yurek said the new rule does not meet the criteria of past rules: economically justified and technologically feasible, benefitting consumers, and adequately taking into account potential negative economic impact.
DOE's March 28, 2014, final rule on energy standards for commercial refrigeration equipment is an update of standards set in 2009.
