Energy efficiency standards and labels reduce the energy consumption of appliances, equipment, and lighting without compromising the services they provide to consumers.
Energy efficiency standards and labels are highly effective strategies for producing very large energy savings compared with business-as-usual practices.
Energy efficiency standards and labels offer the potential for carbon reduction, consumer savings, cost-effective energy-conservation policy, and greenhouse gas emissions abatement.
CLASP worked with the Ghana Energy Foundation from 2000-2002 to assist the Ghana Standards Board (GSB) and Ministry of Mines and Energy to identify products and develop standards and labels.
