Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedures for Residential Clothes Washers
In this supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNOPR), the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposes to revise its test procedure for residential clothes washers established under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA). DOE proposes to amend the definition of the energy test cycle to provide further clarity to ensure that the test procedure is representative of consumer behavior and repeatable among different test laboratories. This proposal incorporates suggestions received from interested parties in response to the September 21, 2010 notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) and the August 9, 2011 SNOPR.
Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products: Proposed Determination To Treat Non-Compressor Residential Refrigeration Products as Covered Products
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has preliminarily determined that residential refrigeration products that do not incorporate a compressor qualify as covered products under Part B of Title III of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), as amended. DOE reached this preliminary conclusion because classifying products of such type as covered products is necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of EPCA, and the average U.S. household energy use for such products, (e.g., thermoelectric wine chillers) is likely to exceed the 100 kilowatt-hour (kWh) per year threshold required for coverage.

Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Certain Consumer Products (Dishwashers, Dehumidifiers, Microwave Ovens, and Electric and Gas Kitchen Ranges and Ovens) and for Certain Commercial and Industrial Equipment (Commercial Clothes Washers); Correction
This final rule reinstates in Department of Energy (DOE) regulations the energy and water conservation standards required by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT 2005) for commercial clothes washers (CCWs) until January 1, 2013. In the final rule establishing amended standards for CCW, published in the Federal Register on Friday, January 8, 2010 (75 FR 1122) and applicable as of January 1, 2013, DOE erroneously deleted reference to these EPACT 2005 standards.
