Energy label
The scope of application of the energy label is European and constitutes an informative tool at the service of buyers of electricity consuming devices. It allows the consumer to quickly know the energy efficiency of an appliance. It must be displayed on each appliance offered for sale. The types of household appliances that are required to be energy labeled are:
- refrigerators and freezers
- dishwasher
- washing machines
- Dryers
- washing machines
- domestic light sources
- Electric furnaces
- Air conditioning
With Directive 2010/30/EU, in June 2010 the European Union created a new design for the energy label. The classification scale is made up of letters, in addition to the three additional classes of superior energy efficiency: A+, A++ and A+++.
Home appliance networking
There is a trend to network appliances and combine their key functions and controls. For example, power distribution could be more evenly managed, so that when a washing machine is on, an oven can switch to a delayed start mode, or vice versa. Or a washer and dryer could share information about load characteristics (gentle/normal, light/full) and synchronize their finish times so wet laundry doesn't have to wait before going into the dryer.
In addition, some appliance manufacturers are quickly beginning to put Internet-enabled hardware into appliances to enable remote control, automation, communication with other appliances, and more functionality that enables the connected kitchen. Internet-connected home appliances were especially prevalent during recent Consumer Electronics Show events.
