Overview

What is MEPS?

Minimum Energy Performance Standard (MEPS) refers to a specification which includes various performance requirements applicable on the electric equipment, lighting, and appliances for energy efficiency.

Meeting MEPS is obligatory for a wider product range in Australia and New Zealand. Thus, electric equipment, lighting, and appliances need to be registered and meet the established requirements to sell or distribute in either of the countries.

  • Why is MEPS Essential?
  • One of the foremost importance of Minimum Energy Performance Standard (MEPS) lies in the fact that it ensures that a product is energy efficient through specifying a minimum efficient energy level. This is done, to prevent the entrance of inefficient products in the market.
