Energy Conservation Standards for Walk-in Coolers and Freezers

The U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") is undertaking an early assessment review to evaluate whether to amend the energy conservation standards for walk-in coolers and freezers ("walk-ins" or "WICFs"). Specifically, through this request for information ("RFI"), DOE seeks data and information to evaluate whether amended energy conservation standards would result in significant savings of energy; be technologically feasible; and be economically justified. DOE welcomes written comments from the public on any subject within the scope of this document (including those topics not specifically raised in this RFI), as well as the submission of data and other relevant information concerning this early assessment review.
