Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Automatic Commercial Ice Makers; (89 page(s), in English)

Notice of proposed rulemaking and announcement of public meeting via webinar on Wednesday, 14 June 2023, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time - The Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), as amended, prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including automatic commercial ice makers. EPCA also requires the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to periodically determine whether more stringent standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified and would result in significant energy savings. In this notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR), DOE proposes to amend and establish energy conservation standards for automatic commercial ice makers and also announces a public meeting to receive comment on these proposed standards and associated analyses and results.
