Australia/New Zealand revision to the lowest energy efficiency standards air conditioning AS/NZS 382

In August 8, 2011, the New Zealand released the G / TBT / N / NZL / 56, bulletin, revises the air conditioning and heating pump minimum energy efficiency standards of AS / NZS 3823.2: 2009.
At present, the conditioning of the minimum energy efficiency standards set for 2001 standard, its MEPS in subsequent is older also experienced several amendments. A recent revision released in 2009 ( EES 2009 ). Related requirements changes have been reflected in the AS / NZS 3823.2: 2009 2010 April and the implementation of the regulations of. While the new annual energy consumption calculation will be from 2011 April start.
In 2010 December, Australia equipment energy efficiency Committee (hereinafter referred to as the" E3 committee" ) to the Ministry of Energy Council ( MCE ) submitted a minimum energy efficiency requirements of the regulations about air impact assessment report ( RIS ). RIS related products mainly include AS / NZS 3823.2 in air conditioners, strengthen the conditioning of the minimum energy efficiency standards ( MEPS ) level. MCE according to the RIS, put forward the related proposal air-conditioning energy efficiency regulations. However, this is only the Australian comments, if New Zealand want in this report to submit their comments or suggestions, then New Zealand must therefore launched a public consultation.
In AS / NZS 3823.2: 2009 after the release of the efficiency of the air conditioner, the changes are mainly:
L in 2009 July, the Australian Government Committee ( COAG ) according to RIS, agreed in 2010 April to apply a measure, from 2011 October, air conditioning of MEPS decreased 10%.
L September 1, 2009, Queensland Lanzhou introduced a law, demanding a ban on sales of energy efficiency ratio ( EER ) < 2.9 air conditioning ( cooling capacity is not more than 65 kW ).
L January 1, 2010, South Australia for air introduced a new energy performance standards, this standard than the current standard and 2010 April MEPS must be high.
All around MEPS reduces the goal of 10%, put forward four proposals. According to the four proposals, expected the Australian / New Zealand in 2015, 2020 and 2025, the quantity of energy saving will be shown in the following table.
Is expected to save the quantity of energy ( GWh PA )

On AS / NZS 3823.2: 2009 of the revised standard is expected to be in October 1, 2011 since the implementation of the revised, more details please see the" Decision RIS: MEPS for Air Conditioners 2011".
