36 Several stakeholders and policy experts pointed out that delays mean that opportunities were missed to exploit the significant potential for energy savings and reduce environmental impact22. 
36 Flera berrda parter och politiska experter ppekade att frseningarna innebr att man missar mjligheter att utnyttja den betydande potentialen fr energibesparingar och minskad miljpverkan22.
In addition, when the Commission adopts regulations after a long delay, there is a risk that the requirements are outdated. 
Nr kommissionen antar frordningar efter en kraftig frsening finns dessutom risk fr att kraven r inaktuella.
For example: Ń for heaters: the 2013 Ecodesign measure required a minimum energy efficiency level of 86 % for the most common type of heaters as of 2015.This was already the average declared efficiency level of all space heaters sold in 2013 in the EU; Ń for televisions: the Ecodesign requirements adopted in 2009 were based on obsolete data and did little to improve energy efficiency. 
Hr fljer ngra exempel p detta: Ń Vrmare: enligt ekodesigntgrden frn 2013 krvdes en lgsta energieffektivitetsniv p 86 % fr den vanligaste typen av vrmare frn och med 2015. Detta var redan den deklarerade genomsnittliga effektivitetsnivn fr alla rumsvrmare som sldes i EU 2013. Ń Tv-apparater: de krav p ekodesign som antogs 2009 byggde p frldrade uppgifter och ledde inte till ngra strre frbttringar av energieffektiviteten.
The evaluation of the Ecodesign Directive23 shows that most products already met the 2012 requirements in 2010. 
Utvrderingen av direktivet om ekodesign23 visar att de flesta produkterna redan 2010 uppfyllde kraven fr 2012.

37 For the most recent review of regulations for electronic displays and refrigerators, we found that the Commission took this issue into account and updated the market data multiple times during the regulatory process. 
37 Nr det gller den senaste versynen av frordningar om elektroniska bildskrmar och kylskp konstaterade vi att kommissionen tog hnsyn till detta problem och uppdaterade marknadsuppgifterna flera gnger under lagstiftningsprocessen.
Nonetheless, for these two product groups, the time elapsed between the moment when the Commission analysed the last dataset and the date of entry into force of the new requirements was three and five years, respectively. 
Trots detta gick det tre respektive fem r frn det att kommissionen analyserade det sista datasetet till den dag d de nya kraven trdde i kraft fr dessa tv produktgrupper.
The Commission is taking steps to improve the energy labels 38 All products covered by the relevant regulations in the EU must have energy labels displayed. 
Kommissionen vidtar tgrder fr att frbttra energimrkningarna 38 Samtliga produkter som omfattas av de relevanta frordningarna i EU mste vara frsedda med energimrkningar.
As their purpose is to enable consumers to make better-informed decisions, it is important that the labels are understandable. 
Eftersom syftet r att gra det mjligt fr konsumenterna att fatta mer vlgrundade beslut r det viktigt att mrkningarna r begripliga.
39 As an example, the energy labels for heaters demonstrate the need for clarity. 
39 Som exempel visar energimrkningarna fr vrmare p behovet av tydlighet.
The Commission did not carry out a study on consumer understanding before adopting the energy labels in 2013. 
Kommissionen genomfrde inte ngon studie av konsumenternas frstelse innan energimrkningarna antogs 2013.
Figure 8 shows the current design of an energy label for a heating system that can be confusing to consumers. 
I figur 8 visas den nuvarande utformningen av en energimrkning fr vrmesystem som kan vara frvirrande fr konsumenter.
A 2016 study on energy labels24 found that less than one third of respondents could understand all the information provided on the label. 
I en studie av energimrkningar24 frn 2016 konstateras att mindre n en tredjedel av respondenterna frstod all information i mrkningen.

40 In its report on the review of the former energy labelling Directive 2010/30/EU25, which has been replaced by the new Energy Labelling Regulation, the Commission recognised that some elements of the labels for several product groups were difficult to understand. 
40 I rapporten om versynen av det tidigare direktivet 2010/30/EU om energimrkning25, som har ersatts av den nya frordningen om energimrkning, medgav kommissionen att vissa delar av mrkningen fr flera produktgrupper var svra att frst.
To address this weakness, the Commission decided to carry out consumer testing when developing product-specific energy labels, to check that any pictograms and the entire label were comprehensible. 
Fr att ta itu med denna brist beslutade kommissionen att genomfra konsumenttester i samband med utvecklingen av produktspecifik energimrkning fr att se till att symbolerna och mrkningen som helhet var begripliga.
For product groups such as heaters (as seen in Figure 8 above), possible changes will only be visible to consumers after a new implementing measure is adopted and enters into force, which may take many years. 
Nr det gller produktgrupper som till exempel vrmare (ssom visas i figur 8 ovan) kommer eventuella ndringar inte att vara synliga fr konsumenterna frrn en ny genomfrandetgrd har antagits och trtt i kraft, vilket kan ta mnga r.
25 Report from the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council - Review of Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 May 2010 on the indication of labelling and standard product information of the consumption of energy and other resources by energy-related products, COM(2015) 345 final. 
25 Rapport frn kommissionen till Europaparlamentet och rdet, versyn av Europaparlamentets och rdets direktiv 2010/30/EU av den 19 maj 2010 om mrkning och standardiserad produktinformation som anger energirelaterade produkters anvndning av energi och andra resurser, COM(2015) 345 final.
41 However, for the new package of measures adopted in March 2019, the Commission carried out consumer understanding studies for the labels of all product groups. 
41 I samband med det nya tgrdspaket som antogs i mars 2019 genomfrde dock kommissionen underskningar av hur konsumenterna uppfattar mrkningarna fr alla produktgrupper.
The Commission presented the findings to the Member StatesŐ experts, who proposed a number of simplifications to the labels before their adoption. 
Kommissionen presenterade resultaten fr medlemsstaternas experter, som freslog ett antal frenklingar av mrkningarna innan de antogs.
42 The Commission concluded that the A+, A++ and A+++ classes were less effective than the A to G energy efficiency rating and decided to phase them out. 
42 Kommissionen drog slutsatsen att energiklasserna A+, A++ och A+++ var mindre ndamlsenliga n energieffektivitetsbetyget A till G och beslutade att fasa ut dem.
These energy classes will be discontinued over the next few years when new labels are adopted for product groups. 
Energiklasserna kommer att dras in under de nrmaste ren nr nya mrkningar antas fr produktgrupper.
This is already the case for the energy labelling measures that will apply from 2021. 
Detta gller redan fr de energimrkningstgrder som kommer att tillmpas frn 2021.
The Commission increased the focus on resource efficiency but has not delivered the circular economy toolbox 43 In 2016, the Commission announced in its Working Plan that it would develop a circular economy toolbox to provide guidance on the inclusion of resource and material efficiency in implementing measures. 
Kommissionen kade inriktningen p resurseffektivitet men har inte levererat verktygsldan fr cirkulr ekonomi 43 r 2016 meddelade kommissionen i arbetsplanen att den skulle ta fram en verktygslda fr cirkulr ekonomi i syfte att ge vgledning om hur resurs-och materialeffektivitet kan integreras i genomfrandetgrder.
This requires developing a standardised method for assessing the impact on resource efficiency across multiple product groups and carry out systematic in-depth analyses of circular economy potential during preparatory studies. 
Detta krver att man tar fram en standardiserad metod fr att bedma effekten p resurseffektivitet i olika produktgrupper och gr systematiska och grundliga analyser av den cirkulra ekonomins potential vid frstudier.
44 The Commission has taken the first steps towards developing a toolbox. 
44 Kommissionen har inlett arbetet med att utveckla en verktygslda.
It has begun to develop horizontal material efficiency standards and revise the Methodology for Ecodesign of Energy-related Products (MEErP). 
Den har brjat ta fram vergripande standarder fr materialeffektivitet och ndrat metodiken fr ekodesign av energirelaterade produkter (MEErP).
We found that the content, depth and scope of existing preparatory and review studies exploring circular economy concepts varied between product groups. 
Vi konstaterade att innehll, djup och omfattning hos gjorda frstudier och granskningsstudier om begrepp med koppling till cirkulr ekonomi varierade mellan produktgrupper.
This was because these studies did not follow a standardised methodology, and the Commission had to contract out additional studies to gather the necessary information on circular economy issues. 
Det beror p att studierna inte fljde en standardiserad metod och kommissionen blev tvungen att utkontraktera ytterligare studier fr att samla ndvndig information om frgor rrande cirkulr ekonomi.
This contributed to the delays described in paragraph 33. 
Detta bidrog till de frseningar som beskrivs i punkt 33.
45 In its recent proposals, the Commission has increased the focus on resource efficiency. 
45 I sina senaste frslag har kommissionen kat inriktningen p resurseffektivitet.
The audit found that the studies carried out to review the legislation on electronic displays and refrigerators considered several environmental aspects other than energy, such as waste management, the presence of critical and rare materials, recyclability, reparability and durability. 
Under revisionen konstaterade vi att de studier som genomfrdes fr att granska lagstiftningen om elektroniska bildskrmar och kylskp beaktade flera andra miljaspekter frutom energi, exempelvis avfallshantering, frekomst av ovanliga material och material av avgrande betydelse, tervinningsmjligheter, reparationsmjligheter och hllbarhet.
Based on study findings and a consultation, the Commission has included a number of requirements relating to these aspects in its regulatory proposals (see example in Box 1). 23 
P grundval av slutsatserna i studierna och ett samrd infrde kommissionen ett antal krav med anknytning till dessa aspekter i lagfrslagen (se exempel i ruta 1). 25
24 Box 1 Striking a balance between energy efficiency and reducing food waste Food waste is a global problem that has been in the spotlight in recent years due to its economic and environmental consequences. 
26 Ruta 1 Uppn balans mellan energieffektivitet och minskat matsvinn Matsvinn r ett globalt problem som har uppmrksammats under senare r p grund av de ekonomiska och miljmssiga konsekvenserna.
Around 11 % of the food and drink stored in refrigerators is wasted due to spoilage and bad planning. 
Omkring 11 % av den mat och dryck som frvaras i kylskp gr till spillo p grund av frruttnelse och dlig planering.

According to a study for households refrigeration, better design could help prevent food waste26, as different types of food are best preserved at different temperatures, refrigerators with multiple compartments (such as a cellar and a chiller) can help conserve food longer. 
Enligt en studie om kylar och frysar fr hushllsbruk skulle bttre utformning kunna bidra till att frhindra matsvinn26, eftersom olika typer av livsmedel frvaras bst i olika temperaturer och kylskp med flera fack (t.ex. ett svalfack och ett lgtemperaturfack) kan bidra till att bevara livsmedel lngre tid.
The study showed that these types of refrigerators consume at least 20 % more electricity than today's average refrigerator, but found that even a two percentage point reduction in food waste would compensate for the higher energy use. 
Studien visade att sdana typer av kylskp frbrukar tminstone 20 % mer el n dagens genomsnittliga kylskp, men det konstaterades att s lite som en tvprocentig minskning av matsvinnet skulle kompensera fr den kade energifrbrukningen.
Based on these findings, the Commission proposed that these refrigerators benefit from a ŇcorrectedÓ energy efficiency rating, better than it would be in reality, in order to promote them. 
P grundval av dessa slutsatser freslog kommissionen att dessa kylskp skulle f tnjuta ett ÓkorrigeratÓ energieffektivitetsbetyg, som var bttre n det egentligen skulle vara, fr att lyfta fram dem.
European consumer organisations27 criticised this decision, arguing that it relied too much on the assumption that consumers would properly sort and store their food. 
Europeiska konsumentorganisationer27 kritiserade beslutet och hvdade att det i alltfr stor utstrckning byggde p antagandet att konsumenter skulle sortera och frvara sin mat p rtt stt.
They also criticised the fact that, as the correction factor is not visible to consumers, they would not have accurate information about the additional operating costs before making a purchase. 
De kritiserade ven faktumet att konsumenterna inte skulle ha korrekt information om extra driftskostnader innan ett kp, eftersom korrigeringsfaktorn inte r synlig fr dem.

Ecodesign impact accounting overestimates the impact of the policy although there have been recent improvements 46 Although it is not a legal requirement, the Commission regularly communicates the results of its Ecodesign and Energy Labelling policy to the public. 
I berkningen av ekodesignens effekter verskattas politikens resultat, ven om det har skett frbttringar p senare tid 46 Trots att det inte r ett rttsligt krav meddelar kommissionen regelbundet allmnheten om resultaten av politiken fr ekodesign och energimrkning.
Since 2013, the Commission has published an Ecodesign Impact Accounting (EIA) report annually, estimating the cumulative results of the Ecodesign and Energy Labelling policy by 2020 and 2030. 
Sedan 2013 har kommissionen rligen offentliggjort rapporten Ecodesign Impact Accounting, med uppskattningar av de sammantagna resultaten av politiken fr ekodesign och energimrkning fram till 2020 och 2030.
The EIA develops future projections based on a comparison of two scenarios: a Business as Usual scenario and an ECO scenario. 
I rapporten utarbetas framtidsprognoser p grundval av en jmfrelse mellan tv scenarier: ett scenario med ofrndrade frhllanden (business-as-usual) och ett ECO-scenario.
The ECO scenario is the scenario elaborated taking into account the policy effect since the beginning for each product group. 
ECO-scenariot r det scenario som tagits fram med beaktande av politikens effekter p varje produktgrupp sedan begynnelsen.
47 Figure 9 shows the way the EIA report presents the results for one product group.

48 The 2018 EIA report estimates that the impact of product improvements and energy labels since the 1990s will have a significant benefit in 2020. 
48 I 2018 rs rapport uppskattas att effekten av produktfrbttringar och energimrkningar sedan 1990-talet kommer att fra med sig betydande frdelar 2020.
It estimates that the policy will bring: Ń 150 mega tonne oil equivalent of energy saved (9 % of EU total); Ń 306 mega tonne CO2 equivalent less greenhouse gases emissions (7 % of EU total); Ń Ű63 billion net saving for consumers; Ń Ű66 billion in extra revenue for industry, sellers, and installers. 
Det uppskattas att politiken kommer att fra med sig fljande: Ń Energibesparingar p 150 megaton oljeekvivalenter (9 % av totalsumman i EU). Ń Mindre vxthusgasutslpp p 306 megaton koldioxidekvivalenter (7 % av totalsumman i EU). Ń Nettobesparingar p 63 miljarder euro fr konsumenterna.
These results are expected to increase by over 60 % by 2030, according to the EIA. 
Dessa resultat frvntas ka med ver 60 % fram till 2030 enligt rapporten.
49 The EIA report states that the estimates presented above should follow three Ôground rulesŐ: they should be realistic, fit for purpose, and based on existing measures. 
49 I rapporten anges att de uppskattningar som presenteras ovan br flja tre grundregler: de br vara realistiska, ndamlsenliga och utg frn befintliga tgrder.
We found that some assumptions used were likely to overestimate the impact of the Ecodesign and Energy Labelling policy. 
Vi konstaterade att ngra av de anvnda antagandena sannolikt skulle leda till en verskattning av den effekt som politiken fr ekodesign och energimrkning har.
Specifically: Ń the EIA estimates the future impact of the policy, rather than evaluating what has been achieved already. 
Nrmare bestmt nr det gller fljande: Ń I rapporten uppskattas den framtida effekten av politiken snarare n utvrderas vad som redan har uppntts.
So it also takes into account legislation expected to come into force in the near future. 
Den tar allts ven hnsyn till lagstiftning som frvntas trda i kraft inom en snar framtid.
If the requirements actually adopted become less stringent or there are delays, the EIA figures are thus overestimated; Ń the EIA assumes that the regulation will be fully complied with and that there are no shortcomings in market surveillance. 
Om de krav som faktiskt antas blir mindre strikta eller om det sker frseningar r sledes sifferuppgifterna i rapporten verskattade. Ń I rapporten antas det att frordningen kommer att efterlevas till fullo och att det inte finns ngra brister nr det gller marknadskontroll.
However, the Commission and other stakeholders28 estimate that non-compliance leads to up to 10 % of energy savings being lost. 
Kommissionen och andra berrda parter28 uppskattar dock att bristande efterlevnad leder till att upp till 10 % av energibesparingarna gr frlorade. ven vid vr revision konstaterades brister i marknadskontrollen (se punkterna 55Đ73).
These standards are not always representative of actual energy-consumption in real-life conditions, as Box 2 explains. 
Standarderna r inte alltid representativa fr den faktiska energifrbrukningen under verkliga frhllanden, vilket frklaras i ruta 2.
26 27 Box 2 Shortcomings of EU harmonised standards An independent report29 explored the shortcomings of the European harmonised standards used for testing of three product groups: washing machines, televisions, and fridges. 
29 Ruta 2 Brister i EU:s harmoniserade standarder I en oberoende rapport29 undersktes bristerna nr det gller de europeiska harmoniserade standarder som anvnds fr testning av tre produktgrupper: tvttmaskiner, tv-apparater och frysar.
It concluded that testing conditions prescribed by the standards differed from real-life use, thus underestimating real-life consumption. 
Slutsatsen var att testfrhllandena som faststlls i standarderna skiljde sig t frn verklig anvndning, vilket innebar att den verkliga frbrukningen underskattades.
For example: o dishwashers are tested on the most efficient Eco programme, but this programme is used infrequently (18 % of the time); o televisions are tested with a video clip from 2007 that does not reflect typical home viewing; and o fridge-freezers are tested without opening the doors and with no food inside. 
Hr fljer ngra exempel p detta: o Diskmaskiner testas med det mest effektiva Eco-programmet, men det programmet anvnds inte hela tiden (18 % av gngerna). o Tv-apparater testas med ett videoklipp frn 2007 som inte terspeglar typiskt hemmatittande. o Kombinerade kyl/frysar testas utan att drrarna ppnas och utan ngon mat inuti.
Based on a small sample of products, the study estimated that dishwashers could consume 6 % to 73 % more energy when used with different programmes, TVs tested with a different video sequence consumed from 6% less to 47 % more energy, refrigerators consumed up to 47 % more energy with door opening every 12 hours. 
Utifrn ett litet produkturval uppskattades i studien att diskmaskiner kunde frbruka 6 % till 73 % mer energi nr de anvndes med andra program. Tv-apparater som testades med en annan videosekvens frbrukade frn 6 % mindre till 47 % mer energi.
The report also demonstrated that manufacturers could exploit loopholes in the standards or use circumvention techniques30 (such as a Ňcheating devicesÓ to detect that a test is taking place) to obtain better ratings or falsely claim compliance with Ecodesign requirements. 
Kylskp frbrukade upp till 47 % mer energi nr drrarna ppnades var tolfte timme. Rapporten visade ven att tillverkare kunde utnyttja kryphl i standarderna eller anvnda tekniker fr att kringg kraven30 (t.ex.
