This regulation establishes new energy efficiency and environmental standards for refrigerators and freezers. It aims to reduce the energy consumption of these appliances and minimize their impact on the climate by limiting the use of harmful refrigerants.

Manufacturers of refrigerating appliances must adapt their designs to meet these stricter ecodesign requirements. Consumers will benefit from more energy-efficient products, leading to lower electricity bills and a smaller carbon footprint.
