Aligning Test Methods in Energy Efficiency Standards- from China’s perspective
Li PengchengChina National Institute of Standardization
Background
In 2009, residential energy consumption in China reached 240 million toe, almost the TPES of Canada or France.
In 2011, China produced 122 million TVs(more than 50% of the global production), 1.13 billion mobiles(more than 70% global production) and 320 million micro-computers (more than 60% global production).
Uniform test methods can save the cost of testing and compliance requirements, remove trading barriers. It can also speed the development of energy efficiency standards/labeling programs.

Test Methods in Energy Efficiency Standards for ICT products in China
• Principles for selecting testing methods of ICT products– ISO or IEC standards– Widely accepted standards/protocols/specifications (Energy
Star, CoC of ErP etc.)– Self-developed
Products Selection of Test Methods
External Power Supply International Protocol
Computer Monitors Self-developed
Copiers, Energy Star
Printers/fax machines Energy Star
Set-top boxes Self-developed
Computers Energy Star
Lessons from China’s experiences for aligning test methods
• Technology neutral • Adapted to the domestic market
Solid Technical BasisSolid Technical Basis
• Stakeholders involving in the process: policy-makers, manufactures, testing labs, certification bodies
• Example: International efficiency marking protocol for external power supply

Barriers to aligning test methods of ICT products in APEC economies
• Fragment of information– Standardization bodies: IEC TCs– Industries: ECMA, Protocols, forums– Programs: Energy Star, European Directives, Labeling Program
• DiversityTypical productsTesting environmentUsage profile
• Participation– Limited resources– Complexity of administrations
• Capacity– Policy makers– Manufactures– Testing lab.
