EPREL (European Product Registry for Energy Labels)
EPREL is a database operated by the European Commission providing information about the energy efficiency and other important specifications of different models of labelled products. Suppliers are obliged to enter product information into EPREL as required by the EU energy labelling framework regulation.
Dealers can use EPREL to download energy labels and PIS, to look up specific information on a product or to generate links to EPREL e.g. for an online shop.
EPREL consists of a "compliance" section and a "public" section:
- In the compliance section, suppliers are legally required to register any product models placed on the EU market that are subject to EU energy labelling requirements. The information to be registered includes confidential technical information only accessible to market surveillance authorities, which are responsible for verifying compliance.
- In the public part, consumers, dealers and other stakeholders can find useful information about the product such as the energy label and PIS, select products according to specific criteria, sort results using up to three simultaneous keys, assess the population in respect to the Taxonomy criteria (i.e. highest significantly populated class(es)), download energy labels and PIS, also in electronic format and for online use via public APIs, and more.
