Foreword
BIO by Deloitte is pleased to submit this draft Task 2 report for the project “Preparatory Study to
establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC”, on behalf of
the project team composed of BIO by Deloitte, Oeko-Institut and ERA Technology.
This report presents a review and clustering of product groups in order to arrive at a list of products
that will provide a basis for the choice of priority products for the 3rd
Working Plan.
The report is structured as follows: Chapter 1 reviews products that have been included in Preparatory
Studies but not yet regulated in order to identify products that might have to be reincluded
(subtask 2.1). Chapter 2 develops a complementary list of product groups, consisting of products that
have either not yet been studied in depth in earlier Working Plan studies or for which new evidence
has become available (subtask 2.2). Chapter 3 sums up the resulting list of potential products and
suggestions for horizontal issues.
This work will be the basis for an additional pre-screening at the beginning of Task 3, which will result
in no more than 30 product groups that will be the object of this study.
5 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
1. Task 2.1: Review of product
categories already considered
1.1 Objective and methodology
1.1.1 Purpose of Task 2.1
The objective of this Task 2.1 is to identify product categories that have been considered in previous
Working Plans and yet fail to be addressed through an Ecodesign regulation. Hence the list of
products included either in the transitional period or in previous Working Plans will be re-assessed.
The assessment will identify the main reasons why it was not possible or desirable to establish
Ecodesign Implementing Measures for these products. Depending on the reasons given, they might
be reincluded into the list of products to be considered in the next tasks.
This chapter deals with the possible gaps between the Ecodesign Preparatory Studies and the
Regulations: at end of May 2014, 23 product-specific Ecodesign Regulations (excluding amendments)
have been adopted, and 2 Voluntary Agreements have been recognised by the Commission. For the
five Lots which currently bear the status “Draft regulation”, this exercise will be repeated when a
Regulation is passed during the course of this Working Plan study1.
1.1.2 Approach of Task 2.1
In Task 2.1, the focus is on product categories which have been in scope of Preparatory Studies and
yet are not in scope of the matching regulations (or Voluntary Agreements)2. While such “gaps” are
not extremely frequent, they have to be carefully studied in order to track any missing product
categories. To clarify what is meant by “gap”, the Figure 1 below demonstrates that the scope of the
Preparatory Study does not necessarily match the scope of the Regulation. The green squares
symbolise the products that are in the scope, or out of scope of the Preparatory Study. The blue
squares symbolise those that are in scope, or out of scope, of the Regulation (or Voluntary
Agreement). The various overlaps illustrate the various positions products can theoretically have.
Task 2.1 is dealing with the products in the green area marked by 2.
1 The five Lots are: Solid fuel small combustion installations (ENER Lot 15), Local room heating products (ENER Lot 20),
Refrigerating and freezing equipment (ENTR Lot 1), Distribution and power transformers (ENTR Lot 2), Air-conditioning
products, except air-conditioners < 12kW (ENTR Lot 6).
2 Product categories are meant to be smaller than product groups: while product groups correspond to the title of a Preparatory
Study (e.g. boilers and combi-boilers), product categories correspond to all product types that can be included in a given
product group (e.g. gas fired boilers, oil fired boilers, electric boilers, etc.).
6 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
Figure 1: Different scopes and purpose of Task 2.1
The scope of the Preparatory Study is generally described in its Task 1, which is consistent with the
MEEuP/MEErP methodology. Still, the scope is often not as clear as one could wish, and the
Preparatory Studies do not always specify which product categories are in scope. In that case, a
deeper look was taken at the whole Preparatory Study, especially the tasks related to economic and
market analysis (Task 2) and the definition of the base-cases (Task 4 or 5, depending on the
methodology and the DG commissioning the Preparatory Study).
The scope of the regulation is defined in its Article 1 (Subject matter and scope) and Article 2
(Definitions). Usually, the scope of the Regulation does not specifically refer to product categories, and
for this reason one has to take a closer look at the definitions. Sometimes, the definitions also refer to
the Annexes (mostly in case of further technical details of products included or excluded from the
scope of the Regulation).
Two specifications must be added to the methodology:
Regulations often bear a paragraph beginning with “The Regulation shall not apply to”. Still,
these products are not generally the topic of the present Task 2.1, since many products to
which the Regulation shall not apply were also not included in the scope of the Preparatory
Study. We have “non-scope/non-scope” products, as is illustrated in Figure 1;
Only the main products are being looked at, as indicated in the column “Main product
categories in scope of Preparatory Study but excluded from the Regulation”. This means that
small product categories or product categories excluded from the Regulations for safety
reasons are not taken into account. Such product categories are for example “self-priming
pumps” (in ENER Lot 11 Water pumps), “motors specified to operate exclusively in potentially
explosive atmospheres” (in ENER Lot 11 Motors), or “spin-extractors” (in ENER Lot 16 Laundry
driers)3.
3 As soon as a product category is not or barely mentioned in the Preparatory Study, this implies it is not significant. Thus, it is
assumed that it is not relevant anyway for reinclusion.

The reasons of why specific requirements were not developed for these product categories have been
investigated. Only very few product categories have been deemed worth reincluding in the present
study. Typical reasons for an exclusion from Regulation that could be identified are the following:
Product category is already considered elsewhere;
Revision process of the Regulation is ongoing or planned;
Test standards are missing;
Sales are too low;
Improvement potential is too low; or
Unknown reasons.
Product categories not reincluded because considered elsewhere
A few product categories of the above table (in scope of Preparatory Study but excluded from the
Regulation) do not need to be reincluded in this Working Plan study because they are already
considered elsewhere. This is the case for:
ENER Lot 1: Heaters generating heat only for the purpose of providing hot drinking or sanitary
water are already covered in ENER Lot 2 and regulated under Regulation 814/2013;
ENER Lot 10: Range hoods are already included in Regulation 66/2014 (also including
domestic ovens and hobs);
ENER Lot 11: Positive displacement pumps have been already included in Working Plan 2
(conditional list); and
ENER Lot 11: Fans integrated in:
- Laundry and washer dryers ≤3 kW maximum electrical input power. These product
categories are already included in Regulations 1015/2010 (domestic washing
machines) and 932/2012 (household tumble driers); and
- Kitchen hoods <280 W total maximum electrical input power attributable to the fan(s).
Kitchen hoods are not to be reincluded, since they are already part of Regulation
66/2014.
9 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
Product categories not reincluded because they will be considered in a review process
Some product categories mentioned in the table above are not worth reincluding in the present
analysis because it is explicitly written that they will fall under the review process of their respective
regulations. This is the case of:
ENER Lot 13: Wine storage appliances is a product category to be revisited during review.
According to Article 7 of Regulation 643/2009, “the Commission shall assess the need to adopt
specific Ecodesign requirements for wine storage appliances no later than two years after the
entry into force of this Regulation”. The group has in the meantime been investigated in ENER
Lot 34;
ENER Lot 14 and ENER Lot 16: Household combined washer-driers fall in-between
Regulations on domestic washing machines (Reg. 1015/2010) and household tumble driers
(Reg. 932/2012). According to the Impact Assessment of Ecodesign requirements for
household tumble driers, “it is not possible to cover the washing part of a washer-drier in the
washing machine legislation and the drying part in the driers legislation because the machines
with the continuous washing/drying cycle will not be covered, although not all washer-driers
have this continuous cycle. A product specific legislation (Ecodesign/labelling Regulations) is
needed for washer-driers”4. This specific product group will actually be art of ENER Lot 14
review to be launched in 2014; and
ENER Lot 22 and ENER Lot 23: Commercial ovens and Commercial hobs – the inclusion of
professional and commercial appliances is to be considered during the review. According to
Article 7 of Regulation 66/2014, “the review shall assess, amongst others, the feasibility of:
potential requirements to enhance the recovery and recycling of the appliances; durability and
lifetime requirements; the inclusion of professional and commercial appliances; and fume and
odour removal requirements”.
Also a few product categories are not explicitly mentioned in the table above, but will be subject to a
review. They are only mentioned here for the sake of exhaustiveness:
ENER Lot 8: At first sight, a couple of exemptions mentioned in Annex I may be worth
reincluding. Very small HID lamps, for instance, are not yet covered by Regulation 245/2009.
However, this discussion is extremely technical, and the review of the Regulation should be
performed this year (i.e. 5 years after its entry into force);
ENER Lot 11: Drinking water circulators are subject to information requirements in the current
Regulation (622/2012). Implementing specific requirements for this product category could be
discussed when reviewing the Regulation. According to Article 7 of the Regulation, the
Commission shall review this Regulation before 1 January 2017, in the light of technological
progress; and
ENER Lot 19: A number of exemptions in Article 1 of Regulation 244/2009 are quite technical.
Some of them are obviously covered by other Ecodesign Regulations on lighting (this is the
case for directional lamps, fluorescent lamps without integrated ballast and high intensity
discharge lamps); some others could be reviewed during the revision of the Regulation, which
should be performed in 2014 (i.e. 5 years after its entry into force).
One last item to mention is Voluntary Agreements (currently in force for imaging equipment); in this
case, it is up to the European Commission, not to the Working Plan study, to assess the effectiveness
and efficiency of the Voluntary Agreement.

10 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
Product categories not reincluded because of missing test standards
Quite a few product categories included in the Preparatory Study were excluded from the Regulation
because specific requirements could not be based on any existing measurement standard. Yet for
some product categories, test standards are still missing today, which is why they are not considered
worth reincluding. This is the case for:
ENER Lot 11: Motors completely integrated into a product (for example gear, pump, fan or
compressor) were excluded from standard IEC 60034-30, dealing with low voltage AC motors.
According to the latest updates, motors completely integrated into a machine still cannot be
tested independently of the load5; and
ENER Lot 17: Wet vacuum cleaners, Wet and dry vacuum cleaners and Battery operated
vacuum cleaners could not rely on any suitable efficiency measurement method. This is why
they have been excluded from Regulation 666/2013 (on vacuum cleaners). Still, no
measurement standards have been developed since the entry into force of the Regulation, and
this is why these product categories are not reincluded.
Product categories not reincluded because of low sales
This is specifically the case for three product categories:
ENER Lot 4: Scanners have been excluded from the Voluntary Agreement on imaging
equipment. According to the Preparatory Study, the scanner function is more and more
integrated in Multi-Function Devices (MFD), meaning that fewer and fewer scanners-only are
sold. And according to Eurostat, sales for Prodcom codes including scanners are decreasing.6
Hence, it justifies the decision not to reinclude scanners in the next Working Plan;
ENER Lot 22: Small ovens have low sales. Regulation 66/2014 defines small ovens as cavities
with “a width and depth of less than 250 mm or a height less than 120 mm”, which corresponds
to a maximum volume of 7.5 litres. According to market data presented in the Preparatory
Study, small ovens are a niche market and no new information indicates that sales have
strongly increased;7 and
ENER Lot 23: Portable hobs represent a niche market too. According to the Preparatory Study,
portable hobs account for approximately one percent of market share within the EU, and no
new information indicates that sales have strongly increased. As some portable ovens have
hobs, sales data may be inaccurate though and there may be some overlap.
Product categories not reincluded because of low improvement potential
This is especially the case of one lot:
5 M. Doppelbauer (2012), Update on IEC 60034-2-1 and IEC 60034-30-1, EMSA Testing Centres Workshop (Motro Summit
2012), http://www.motorsummit.ch/data/files/MS_2012/presentation/10_ms12_doppelbauer.pdf
6 There is not any specific Prodcom code for scanners but.both “Data-processing machines, automatic, presented in the form of
systems comprising at least a central processing unit, one input unit and one output unit (excl. portable weighing <= 10 kg
and excl. peripheral units)” and “Input or output units for automatic data-processing machines, whether or not containing
storage units in the same housing (excl. keyboards)” can include scanners. Both categories show a sharp decline in sales
between 2006 and 2012 (-88% for the first category and -24% for the second category).
7 Small ovens should not be confused with “portable ovens” that are usually larger than 7.5 litres and Eurostat data indicates
that sales may be 8-10 million per year in the EU (and considered for reinclusion, see below).
11 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
ENER Lot 22: Microwave ovens have a low improvement potential according to the
Preparatory Study. Yet no technological leap could be observed since the completion of the
Preparatory Study, and newer models do not seem to be much more energy efficient: this
means that energy savings are still too low to consider the reinclusion of microwave ovens in
the Ecodesign Working Plan.
Unknown reason for exclusion
Three product categories have been included in Preparatory Studies, but excluded from Regulations
for reasons that fail to be identified. This is the case for:
ENER Lot 11: Motors specified to operate wholly immersed in a liquid can probably be
assumed as a niche market (i.e. annual sales below 200,000 units in Europe). To the extent
that the market has not soared, this would justify that those motors are not reincluded; and
ENER Lot 11: Fans integrated in products with a sole electric motor of 3 kW or less where the
fan is fixed on the same shaft used for driving the main functionality.
ENER Lot 11: High power fans (above 500 kW) are in scope of the Preparatory Study, which
does not define a maximum power for fans to be included. However, the maximum power input
of the various base-cases defined is 4 kW, much lower than the 500 kW threshold. There is no
explicit argument for not considering fans >500 kW, but the recommendation at the end was
not to include them in Reg. 327/2011. However, this does not seem to pose a problem as the
market is probably insignificant and it is unlikely that their exclusion can be used as a loophole:
The electrical power input is a much higher value than fans usually manufactured. According to
the Preparatory Study, “this ensures that manufacturers producing fans above the 10 kW rating
cannot choose a larger motor just to bypass the possible minimum energy performance
standards”.
Stakeholders are invited to provide information regarding the exclusion of these specific product
categories from the respective Ecodesign Regulations.
1.3 Conclusions on Task 2.1
Most product categories presented in Table 1 and discussed in the above paragraphs should not be
reincluded in the present Working Plan study. But some product categories can be considered
valuable for reinclusion, namely:
ENER Lot 7: Battery chargers had been excluded from Regulation 278/2009 due to missing
measurement standards. Yet today, new standards seem to be available:
- The California Energy Commission (CEC) has an energy efficiency battery charger
test procedure8; and
- The US Department Of Energy (DOE) published a final rule on Energy Conservation
Standards for External Power Supplies (including battery chargers), which includes an
International Efficiency Marking Protocol for External Power Supplies9.
ENER Lot 22: Portable ovens were excluded from Regulation 66/2014. Reason is unknown. It
could be either due to lack of data or because of inapplicability of the electric oven energy
consumption measurement standard. They may be worth reincluding, since the energy savings

12 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
potential appears to be significant (up to 3TWh p.a.) and annual sales may be up to 10 million
or greater, based on Prodcom Eurostat and other data in the Lot 22 report.
ENER Lot 22: Steam ovens lacked a standard when the Preparatory Study was completed. Yet
with some new standard published, it may be possible to determine the improvement potential.
A new standard is to be published in June 2014 by the European Committee for
electrotechnical standardisation. The standard EN 60350-1:2013 is entitled: “Household
electric cooking appliances - Part 1: Ranges, ovens, steam ovens and grills - Methods for
measuring performance”10
.
ENER Lot 23: Grills were considered to be a too diversified product category, and therefore
were excluded from Regulation 66/2014 (also, no EU energy measurement standards are
available). Yet, the definition of grills can be revised and some products with a grill function be
included in upcoming Regulations.
In addition, depending on the information provided by stakeholders regarding the exclusion of
specific motors and fans for which reasons are unknown, these product categories might be
reincluded in the present study.
Typical reasons for not setting specific Ecodesign requirements have been derived and depending on
the reasons, it has been decided whether the products should be reincluded into the analysis in the
next tasks. Furthermore, the reasons can be used as an evaluation criterion for the pre-screening of
other product categories – which will be conducted at the start of Task 3.

13 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
2. Task 2.2: Complementary product
groups
2.1 Objective and methodology
2.1.1 Purpose of Task 2.2
The purpose of Task 2.2 is to set up a list of product groups that have not or not sufficiently been
considered in the previous Ecodesign process and may thus become the object of the third Working
Plan. This list shall be grouped into logical and feasible categories that fulfil the following criteria:
Exhaustiveness and mutual exclusiveness in order to ensure a systematic coverage of
products;
Technical similarity in order to allow for meaningful Ecodesign requirements;
Similarity of function, field of application (household / industrial / tertiary) and / or industrial
branch, if not identical with technical similarity, will be applied as additional criterion in order to
facilitate the policy process (identifying relevant stakeholders and target groups;
communication of the measure); and
Wherever possible, compatibility with existing categories, especially Prodcom and existing
Working Plan studies.
Furthermore, issues will be identified where a product-specific approach comes to its limits. For these
cases, other solutions such as a horizontal approach, a systems perspective or other approaches will
be suggested.
A specific issue in this Working Plan study, as opposed to the earlier ones, is a focus on resource
efficiency issues beyond energy efficiency. Therefore, a further purpose of Task 2.2 is to suggest
products or horizontal issues that are interesting from a resource perspective.
The goal of Task 2.2 is not yet a prioritisation of products.
2.1.2 Approach of Task 2.2
Three sources were used for the identification of product groups not yet sufficiently considered: the
first and second Working Plan study as well as the Prodcom database. After a review of various other
classification systems (CPC, CPA, CN, HS), the team has decided that it was not necessary to
consider additional classification systems: First, the sources mentioned above already provided for a
combination of top-down and bottom-up approaches that was mostly suitable for the purpose. Only a
few product groups remained which did not fit either a Prodcom code or a classification done by
another Working Plan study. But the introduction of yet another classification for those groups would
not have provided added value. It would have increased complexity without actually helping to find
data for these groups because EU-wide statistics similar to Prodcom are not available for these
classifications
14 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
In a first step (top-down approach), the product groups identified in Task 2 and 3 of the second
Working Plan study were taken as a starting point. They were matched with the groups suggested in
the first Working Plan study, and with the Lots that have been initiated by the Commission, to check
which product groups would be worth being re-assessed for inclusion into a third Working Plan (see
Annex IV). The following types of products were considered to merit re-assessment:
Product groups that have not been or could not be studied in depth in the second Working Plan
study (meaning they were identified in Task 2 but not studied in Task 3 or 4)11
;
Product groups that were judged as non-priority products by both Working Plan studies, but for
which new evidence has emerged in the meantime or is suspected to emerge in the course of
closer study (e.g. because one of the studies had mentioned the necessity of further study,
because the assessment in previous studies was rather weak, or because consortium
members or stakeholders hinted at possible new evidence); and
Product groups that were first or second priority in any of the previous Working Plan studies (A
or B in the first or second working plan, dark or medium green in the second Working Plan), but
which were not included in a Working Plan or Preparatory Study and for which new evidence
has emerged in the meantime or is likely to emerge.
In contrast, the following groups were judged not to merit re-assessment:
Product groups which were included in a Working Plan and for which a Preparatory Study has
been launched (except if some specific product categories considered in the Preparatory
Study, if any, were not included in the Ecodesign Regulation, as analysed in Task 2.1);
Product groups which have not been found first or second priority by any of the previous
Working Plan studies, and for which no new evidence has emerged or was likely to emerge;
and
Product groups which have been judged first or second priority in any of the previous Working
Plan studies but which were not included in a Working Plan or Preparatory Study, and for
which no new evidence has emerged or is expected to emerge (these were listed in a
“reminder list”12
).
Figure 2 illustrates the process.
11 The first Working Plan Study did no detailed assessment of specific product groups in the way the second did.
12 The final version of the “reminder list” is published in the Task 3 report.

In the course of this exercise, some of the product groups, as defined in the second Working Plan
study, had to be redefined due to the following reasons:
A Preparatory Study had been launched only for some categories of the product group. The
group had to be redefined so that it excluded these product categories already analysed.
A reformulation of a product group’s boundaries or the splitting of an existing group was
needed to create groups that were technically or functionally more similar.
A reformulation of a product group’s boundaries was needed to eliminate overlaps.
In a second step (bottom-up analysis), the Prodcom 2013 list was assessed, starting from the
assessment of the 2009 list in the second Working Plan Study. Changes in the Prodcom classification
that had been implemented between 2009 and 2013 were recognised, and product groups were re-
scanned in order to verify which product groups were considered in scope of the Ecodesign Directive,
based largely on the previous assessment and correcting it only in a few cases. Excluded were
products that were not in scope because:
An impact on energy consumption could not be verified;
They are means of transport;
They are mass goods (such as cement), primary materials (such as plastics, woods) or
chemicals13
; or
They are parts of other goods that were not sold individually to the end consumer or of which
environmental performance could not be assessed individually.
Then, the product groups in scope were re-scanned in order to identify whether any product group
showed up that had not been considered in the previous Working Plan Studies. A few additional
product groups could be identified this way.
A three-level structure was chosen for the resulting product list:
The first level describes thematic areas or fields of application, according to activity involved
(e.g. “food preparation”, “heating”). This level links to everyday understanding, intending to
facilitate communication and identify relevant stakeholders.
The second level groups products more according to technical similarity; it is therefore closer to
the scope of a potential Preparatory Study. It may include an indication of the intended sector
(industrial, tertiary, or domestic) and of the technical process involved. Examples are “domestic
cooking appliances” or “domestic or tertiary kitchen appliances with chopping, grinding, mixing,
or blending function”. This level is however in many cases still too broad to provide e.g.
detailed sales and trade or energy consumption data for all involved products.
On the third level, concrete product examples are given, such as “mixers, toasters”. Meaningful
data will generally relate to this level, meaning that in the case of broader product groups, a
few examples will have to be chosen for study.
Industrial machines and installation make an exemption to this approach. Although they are extremely
energy relevant, a number of issues arise that make them a challenging subject for potential
Ecodesign Regulations, including:
Huge variety of very heterogeneous products, each produced in small numbers or custom
made;
13
The latter are not explicitly excluded from the Ecodesign Directive; however, it is generally understood that the Directive does
not apply to them.
17 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
Difficulty to define a meaningful grouping, e.g. according to industrial sector or cross-cutting
technical function; and
Often covered by other instruments such as ETS (Emissions Trading Scheme) or IED
(Industrial Emissions Directive).
Therefore, a general approach for dealing with them needs to be proposed before developing a
detailed grouping. The groups defined by the first two Working Plan studies have been adopted for the
moment, even if they follow a slightly different logic (more according to industrial sector in the first
Working Plan study, more according to functions in the second Working Plan study).
First arguments for the priority or non-priority of the product groups were noted in column J, where
available. A more thorough screening will follow at the beginning of Task 3.
In deviation from the proposal, a Prodcom correspondence table was not set up at this stage. As only
selected products would be studied in Tasks 3 and 4, the team perceived a detailed correspondence
list to be of limited added value for the products that would not be chosen. It was therefore decided to
identify the corresponding Prodcom codes rather for the product groups actually studied, in the course
of Task 3.
2.2 Results of Task 2.2
The results of Task 2.2 are two lists: The “reminder list” collects:
Product groups that have been suggested as first or second priority in the second Working
Plan study, but which have not been included in a Working Plan or for which no Preparatory
Study has been launched so far; and
Product groups that have been the object of a Preparatory Study but not included in the
regulation; and are deemed worth reconsidering.
The reminder list has been updated later in the project, in the course of Task 3 work and stakeholder
consultations. Therefore it is not included in the present report, but can be found in the conclusions of
the Task 3 report.
The “remaining products list” includes product groups identified through the Prodcom and previous
Working Plan study assessment as described above (Chapter 2.1.2). In a final step of integration,
results of Task 2.1 were added to these lists. The final content and structure of the lists is described in
the following Chapter 3.
18 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
3. Conclusions on Task 2
3.1 Lists of products to be considered
The overall results of Task 2.2 are two lists, presented in Annex II and in the Task 3 report.
Annex II presents a list of product groups from which the product groups for further analysis in Task 3
will be chosen. The list is created from two sources:
Product groups identified in Task 2.1 as having been the object of a Preparatory Study, but not
regulated to date, and merit further study but unlikely to be included in a review (coloured in
light blue); and
Product groups identified in Task 2.2, Step 1, as remaining product groups (coloured in white).
The list has a three-level structure: The first level (column B) describes thematic areas or fields of
application, according to activity involved (e.g. “food preparation”, “heating” etc.). The second level
(column C) groups products more according to technical similarity; it is therefore closer to the scope of
a potential Preparatory Study. On the third level (column D), concrete product examples are given,
such as “mixers, toasters”.
Besides the product groups, the table gives the source for the respective group (column E) and the
rank it had been assigned in the respective Working Plan study (Columns F, G). Column H, “status”
informs whether the group stems from a previous Working Plan study (“old”) and if so, whether it has
been studied in detail and whether it has been suggested as a priority product. If the group has been
added to the previous Working Plan studies, it is classified as “new”, and if group boundaries have
been changed, as “redefined”. Column I, “detailed investigation lacking?” informs whether the group is
in need for detailed investigation or has already been subject to an investigation of sales and trade
data, resource consumption, improvement potential and further considerations. The latter is assumed
to be the case
If it is one of the groups studied in Chapter 4 of Task 3 of the second Working Plan study;
If there is, at present, no indication that relevant new information may have emerged; and
If it does, according to a preliminary investigation of resource-related issues conducted by
Oeko-Institut14
, not present any additional resource issues.15
The list also contains, in column J, preliminary considerations that may affect the priority of the
products. Results of the additional resource report have also been included in this column, where
relevant. In column K, it is indicated whether a systems perspective suggests itself.
Furthermore, a “reminder list” was developed collects products and issues that will not be the object of
the present Working Plan study for various reasons, but need political decision making by the
Commission. Among them are:
14
This investigation is not included in this report but has been submitted as a separate report.
15 The second Working Plan study looked into energy consumption only.
19 Preparatory study to establish the Ecodesign Working Plan 2015-2017 – Task 2 Draft Final Report
From Task 2.1, products that have been in the scope of a Preparatory Study but not in the
scope of the Regulation, and which would merit reconsidering in the course of the review of
existing Implementing Measures; and
From Task 2.2, Step 1, products that have been suggested as first or second priority in any of
the previous Working Plan Studies but which have not been included in a Working Plan or for
which no Preparatory Study has been launched so far. At the same time, the evidence
provided by the second Working Plan study is deemed to be sufficiently detailed so that no
new evidence is expected to emerge from further study.
The reminder list is not yet presented here. In the course of Task 3, and according to stakeholder
input, it has been updated and complemented by a list of outstanding revisions and the products that
may be covered therein. It will therefore be presented in its final form in the conclusions of Task 3.
3.2 Potential horizontal measures
According to the resource report, the following horizontal measures may be envisaged from a
resource efficiency perspective:
Marking of devices containing components with specific materials. An illustrative example
would be the marking of l devices containing rare earth permanent magnets (e.g. motors,
generators, fans, pumps, elevators, machines). They would be marked with respect to
permanent magnets: Does the device contain permanent magnets? If yes, which type (e.g.
SmCo, FeNdB); and
Battery powered electronic devices: Easy extraction of rechargeable batteries in the recycling
facility (not identical with the easy removability during use required by the battery directive).
The issue of potential horizontal measures will be further explored in the conclusions of the Task 3
report and a fuller assessment will be presented there.

19 Other safety and signalling lighting equipment
Emergency/safety lighting, Traffic signs and road signalisation products,
VHK Task 2
old, not studied
yes It depends what lamps are in use and what their specifications are. If Halogen or incandescent is used (as exempted so far) they are highly relevant in terms of efficiency as safety and signalling lighting has long burning times. As many applications are CFL (safety exits etc.), they are not so relevant when it comes to efficiency. However, CFLs will generally use mercury as well as sometimes phosphor. Regular LEDs can include arsenic, indium, antimony or gallium.Often High intensity discharge lamps (HID) are used that are highly efficient, but mercury relevant.Safety lighting in buildings is often battery powered (in case of power cuts) so energy efficiency should be important to extend battery lifetime.
20 Commercial lighting equipment
Retail Lighting, illuminated displays, illuminated advertising, signs, electronic labels, decorative/festivity lighting (city beautification, X-mas lighting etc.) Non-task area lighting in office buildings (corridors, toilets, reception areas etc.)
VHK Task 2
none none old, not studied
yes General retail lighting should be covered by 245/2009/EU. Directional lighting is sometimes used in commercial applications which would be in scope of 1194/2012 (this includes LEDs and luminaires).Very often in retail halogen is used for accent lighting. LED can be used by today; efficiency requirements

should be considered.Many application have changed to LED already (X-mas lighting…). LEDS combined with Cd quantum dot technology could become relevant in the near future in displays. The LEDS strips used for signing to my knowledge do not use the Cd QD technology at present but contain some of the materials mentioned above.Handicraft luminous discharge tubes (HLDT) are also used for signs, decorative lighting and lightartwork. They contain large amounts of mercury in comparison with regular CFLs. In some cases LEDs are used, in some cases it is not possible. A RoHS exemption was requested for such HLDTs but I think the EU COM has not decided yet. Still, not all HLDTS are RoHS regulated. Group is difficult to regulate as they are hand crafted and custom made.When it comes to general commercial lighting the scope of efficiency requirements should be shifted from lamps to luminaires (lamps+ballasts+luminaire) as the whole system is very relevant when it comes to efficiency. General commercial lighting is ruled by 245/2009/EU Efficiency requirements in terms of Luminaire efficiency factor (LEF) including ballast and properties of the luminaire and the lamps should be considered
21 Other Lighting Applications not covered by existing lots
Industrial Lighting, Tunnel lighting, Private outdoor lighting, other colour lamps, daylight systems
EPTA 42
new yes Daylight and presence control should definitely be considered under eco-design or the buildings directive (EPBD), e.g. every new commercial building must be equipped with daylight and presence

control (huge potential!!!!).Industrial lighting (factories etc.) should be considered. High potential due to long burning hours in factory halls (24h/d) etc. Not covered by 244/2008. Check if and how covered by 245/2009 and 1194/2012. Private outdoor lighting: usually short burning hours.Tunnel lighting: safety relevance very high (glare!); I would suppose that LED solutions are on their way and due to low LCC used anyway. Where CFLs are used, the main concern is as usual mercury. A RoHS exemption was handled last year for special purpose lamps needing more mercury to enable longer service life (lamps for industrial halls and places where maintenance is difficult), Such lamps are relevant here.Close loopholes such as shock proof lamps (not in the 244/2009) that can be used for general lighting. (see EU lighting strategy currently prepared by EC and stakeholders.)

Steam ovens lacked a standard when the Preparatory Study was completed. Yet with some new standard published, it may be possible to determine the improvement potential. Grills were considered to be too diversified product category, and therefore were excluded from Regulation 66/2014. Yet, the definition of grills can be revised and some product with a grill function be included in upcoming Regulations.

50, 57 blasting, jet or spray cleaners, immersion in tanks - these can be hot or ambient. Energy consumption may be dependent on the cleaning solvent used - more energy with water-based than with organic solvents. Many different types of equipment are used depending on what is being cleaned, how clean it needs to be, etc. Significant improvement potential may exist, e.g. by switching to a different cleaning method, but a very diverse group and will be difficult to regulate. One issue is that lower energy options may use may hazardous chemicals.
