COAG Consultation Regulation Impact Statement – swimming pool pumps

On 14 November 2016, the Department of the Environment and Energy released a Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Consultation Regulation Impact Statement (RIS) as part of the Energy Council’s Equipment Energy Efficiency (E3) Programme. The Consultation RIS examines options to improve the energy efficiency of residential pool and spa pumps.

The Consultation RIS considers the introduction of mandatory energy efficiency labelling of all pool and spa pumps and minimum energy performance standards. Feedback is sought on the RIS including responses to some or all of the questions posed.

The Consultation RIS was prepared by the Department of the Environment and Energy and has been approved by the OBPR. The consultation period closes on 20 January 2017.
