  • Tvs Final Report
    Revising the Ecolabel Criteria for Televisions – Final Report April 2008 Executive Summary Background The existing EU Ecolabel criteria for Televisions (Commission Decision 2002/255/EC, March 2002) were developed at a time when the EU TV market was dominated by Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) technology. Today however, the market has changed markedly such that new technologies including Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and Plasma Display Panel (PDP) technologies account for an increasing market share driven by consumer preference for larger screen sizes. Other developments are important drivers for change too including the development of High Definition and Digital television. These developments mean that the existing criteria’s applicability in the rapidly changing market place is becoming increasingly marginalised. Indeed the existing criteria’s relevance to non-CRT technology is questionable. Consequently, the TV criteria are in urgent need of an update if they are to keep pace with the market. AEA was pleased to work with the Commission in undertaking the revision exercise over the period Spring 2006 to Spring 2008. We were assisted by the ad-hoc working group (AHWG) that met twice during the period to discuss and inform the revision. AHWG members and others also lent advice to the project via email and individual meetings that were immensely helpful. In parallel with our work, other important work in support of product policy was underway that helped inform the ecolabel revision, namely: 1 The revision of the TV energy testing methodology. The importance of this work is that it is being undertaken in recognition of the fact that the TV products have changed markedly and that as a result the existing test method is inadequate for non-CRT technology.
