The Golden Carrot
Residential Refrigerators o Intention: Improve energy efficiency by making it worth industry’s
while to invest in new residential refrigeration technology.
o Reality: Existing manufacturers met challenge with incremental changes, and continued to make significant improvements.
o Objectives achieved: Federal minimum energy standards have steadily increased, gradually eliminating least efficient refrigerators from the market.
o Unintended consequences: Refrigerators got cheaper, bigger, and included more features. The market shifted to less efficient designs and consumers bought more of them.
o Status: Significant savings achieved, though some has been taken back. Market for residential refrigeration is transformed.
Wärmepumpen-Wäschetrockner
European Heat Pump Clothes Dryers o Intention: Improve energy efficiency by encouraging industry
to introduce new, more efficient technology.
o Reality: Existing manufacturers met challenge with significant changes, and continue to make significant improvements without incentives (but higher elec prices)
o Objectives achieved: Swiss set high minimum efficiency standard in 2012, EU has revised energy label for dryers
o Unintended Consequences: Increased rate of adoption of residential electric clothes drying(?)
o Status: HP dryers have steadily growing share of European market.
European Market Status

Context
• In August 2013, DOE published an amended clothes
dryer test procedure including a voluntary new
Appendix D2
• Draft 2 Version 1.0 ENERGY STAR specification
released in August 2013; test procedure reference
updated to Appendix D2
• EPA anticipates finishing the ENERGY STAR for
Clothes Dryers v. 1.0 spec in early 2014
• EPA anticipants revised version of Emerging
Technology Award in early 2014
