The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is required by the Energy

Policy and Conservation Act, as amended by section 136(c)(1) of

the Energy Policy Act of 2005, to establish energy conservation

standards for the following commercial refrigeration equipment

manufactured on or after January 1, 2012: commercial ice-cream

freezers; self-contained commercial refrigerators, commercial

freezers, and commercial refrigerator-freezers without doors; and

remote condensing commercial refrigerators, commercial

freezers, and commercial refrigerator-freezers. (42 U.S.C. 6313

Advance Notice of Proposed

Rulemaking (ANOPR)

Following the Framework Document, the Department of Energy

(DOE) is publishing an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

(ANOPR) for the energy conservation standard rulemaking for

commercial refrigeration equipment. The ANOPR is the first stage

of the overall standards rulemaking process and will be followed

by a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) and ultimately a

Final Rule. At the ANOPR stage, the DOE carries out several

analyses, including the engineering analysis, the life-cycle cost

analysis, and the national energy savings analysis. Stakeholders

are invited to review the ANOPR documents and the analytical

tools, attend the public meetings, and submit comments on the

DOE's analysis.
