implementing Directive 2005/32/EC of the Europe an Parliament and of the Council with 
regard to ecodesign requirements for televisions 
(Text with EEA relevance) 
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty esta blishing the European Community, 
Having regard to Directive 2005/32/EC of the Eu ropean Parliament and of the Council of 6 
July 2005 establishing a framework for the sett ing of ecodesign requirements for energy-using 
products and amending Council Directive 92/42/EEC and Directives 96/57/EC and 
2000/55/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council1 and in particular Article 15(1) 
thereof, 
After consulting the Ecodes ign Consultation Forum, 
Whereas: (1) Under Directive 2005/32/EC ecodesign requi rements are to be set by the Commission 
for energy-using products repres enting significant volumes of  sales and trade, having a 
significant environmental impact and presen ting significant potential for improvement 
in terms of their environmental impact without entailing excessive costs. 
(2) Article 16(2) first indent of Directive 2005/ 32/EC provides that in accordance with the 
procedure referred to in Article 19(3) and the criteria set out in Article 15(2), and after consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum,  the Commission shall, as appropriate, 
introduce implementing measures for consumer electronics. 
(3) The Commission has carried out a prepar atory study which analysed the technical, 
environmental and economic aspects of te levisions. The study has been developed 
together with stakeholders and interested parties from the Community and third countries, and the results have been made  publicly available on the EUROPA website 
of the Commission. 
(4) Televisions represent a significant consum er electronic product group in electricity 
consumption and are therefore a priority in ecodesign policy. 
                                                
 
1 OJ L 191, 22.7.2005, p. 29.  
EN 3   EN (5) The environmental aspect of televisions that is identified as significant for the purposes 
of this Regulation is the electric ity consumption in the use phase. 
(6) Annual electricity consumption related to televisions was estimated to be 60 TWh in 
2007 in the Community, corresponding to 24  Mt CO2 emissions. If no specific 
measures are taken to limit this consump tion, it is predicted that electricity 
consumption will increase to 132 TWh in 2020.  The preparatory study shows that use-
phase electricity consumption can be significantly reduced.  
(7) Other environmental aspects of relevance re late to hazardous substances used in the 
production of televisions and waste from televisions dis posed at the end of life. 
Improvements in the related environmenta l impact are addressed in Directive 
2002/95/EC of the European Parliament a nd of the Council of 27 January 2003 on the 
restriction of the use of cer tain hazardous substances in electrical a nd electronic 
equipment2, and Directive 2002/96/EC of 27 Janua ry 2003 on waste electrical and 
electronic equipment3, respectively, and should not be further addressed by this 
Regulation. 
(8) The preparatory study shows that require ments regarding other ecodesign parameters 
referred to in Annex I, Part 1, of Directive 2005/32/EC are not necessary. 
(9) Reduction in the electricity consumption of  televisions is possi ble/viable by applying 
existing non-proprietary cost effective tec hnologies which lead to a reduction of the 
combined expenses for purchasi ng and operating televisions. 
(10) Ecodesign requirements s hould harmonise electricity c onsumption requirements for 
televisions throughout the Community, thus contributing to the functioning of the 
internal market and to the improvement of  the environmental performance of these 
products. 
(11) The ecodesign requirements should not have  a negative impact on the functionality of 
the product or negatively affect  health, safety or the envi ronment. In particular, the 
benefits of reducing electricity consump tion during the use phase should more than 
offset potential additional environmen tal impacts during the production phase. 
(12) A progressive introduction of the ecodesign requirements should provide an 
appropriate timeframe for manufacturers to adapt their products. The timing should be 
such that negative impacts on the functiona lities of equipment al ready on the market 
are avoided, and cost impacts for manufacturer s, in particular small and medium-sized 
enterprises, are taken into account, while en suring timely achieveme nt of the objectives 
of the Regulation. 
(13) Measurements of the relevant produc t parameters should be performed through 
reliable, accurate and reproducible measur ement procedures, whic h take into account 
the recognised state of the art measurem ent methods including, where available, 
harmonised standards adopted by the Europe an standardisation bodies, as listed in 
Annex I to Directive 98/34/EC  of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22

EN 4   EN June 1998 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of 
technical standards and regulations and of  rules on Information Society services4. 
(14) This Regulation should increase the market  penetration of technologies that reduce the 
environmental impact of televi sions, leading to estimated electricity savings of 28 TWh 
by 2020, compared to the situation without taking any measures. 
(15) In conformity with Article 8 of Dire ctive 2005/32/EC, this Regulation should specify 
the applicable conformity assessment procedures. 
(16) In order to facilitate compliance checks,  manufacturers should provide information in 
the technical documentation referred to in  Annexes IV and V of Directive 2005/32/EC 
insofar as this information relates to the requirements laid down in this Regulation. 
(17) The currently best available on-mode energy efficiency and reduced environmental 
impacts related to hazardous substances are identified by Commission Decision of … 
establishing the revised ecological criteria fo r the award of the Community ecolabel to 
televisions5. Such reference will help ensure wi de availability and easy access to 
information, in particular for small and medi um-sized enterprises a nd very small firms, 
which will further facilitate the integration of best design technologies for reducing the environmental impact of televisions. Benchm arks for best availa ble technology should 
therefore not be identif ied in this Regulation. 
(18) The ecodesign requirements, applicable from 7 January 2013, pursuant to Regulation 
(EC) No 1275/2008 of 17 December 2008 impl ementing Directive 2005/32/EC of the 
European Parliament and of the Council w ith regard to ecodesi gn requirements for 
standby and off mode power consumption of  electrical and electronic household and 
office equipment
6 should apply to televisions at an  earlier point in time than provided 
for in that regulation because technologies which comply with its provisions can be 
implemented within a shorter time with rega rd to televisions and additional energy 
savings can be achieved. Regulation (EC) No 1275/2008 should therefore not apply to 
televisions and should be amended accordingly.
