The strictest in history: the new national standard for energy efficiency levels of household refrigerators will be implemented in June next year, and about 20% of the products will be eliminated

Passionategeekz On June 18, the State Administration for Market Regulation (National Standardization Management Committee) approved the issuance of GB 12021.2-2025 “Power Consumption Limit Value and Energy Efficiency Level of Household Refrigerators” at the end of May.This standard will be officially implemented from June 1, 2026。

This revision is within the product scopeAdded household refrigerators and movable vehicle refrigeration equipment for semiconductor refrigeration; Modified the unsuitable product for refrigeration appliances designed for commercial purposes. Mainly under the guidance of energy-saving and low-carbon policies, a variety of refrigeration technologies and equipment have developed in unison, and a number of new types of refrigeration equipment have emerged; the improvement of people’s living standards has led to new refrigerator use scenarios, which has also led to the diversified development of refrigeration equipment. Through standards to regulate market competition and bidding activities of their products, they will play a leading role in standards.

In addition, the new version of the “Power Consumption Limit Value and Energy Efficiency Level of Household Refrigerator” standard has comprehensively optimized the energy efficiency level system. On the basis of maintaining the 5-level classification framework,The energy efficiency requirements of each level have been greatly improved, and more scientific judgment methods have been introduced, and the energy efficiency evaluation has changed from “single indicator” to “comprehensive power consumption measurement”。

Passionategeekz Inquiry learned that Xinfei Electric, one of the core drafting units of the standard, introduced that the introduction of GB12021.2-2025 means that the market entry threshold has been significantly increased. It is estimated thatAbout 20% of inefficient products will gradually withdraw from the market because they do not meet the new standards.。
