1. OBJECTIVES 1.1. Requested standardisation activities The Commission requests the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) and European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardisation (Cenelec) in accordance paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 10 of Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 (ESOs) to draw up harmonised standards, as defined in Article 2(1) point c) of Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012, in support of: Commission Regulation (EU) No 814/2013 1 of 2 August 2013 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC 2 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for water heaters and hot water storage tanks, and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 812/2013 3 of 18 February 2013 supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU 4 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to energy labelling of water heaters, hot water storage tanks and packages of water heater and solar device The ESOs are requested to develop harmonised standards, which cover the requirements set out in both Regulations, for water heaters, hot water storage tanks and for packages of water heater and solar device (electrically driven or using liquefied or gaseous fuels) and as indicated in the requested work programme given in Appendix I. The requested harmonised standards shall incorporate relevant measurement and calculation methods, including measurement and calculation methods set out in relevant Commission Communications 5 on transitional methods of measurement for the implementation of Commission Regulation (EU) No 814/2013 and Commission Regulation (EU) No 812/2013. 1.2. Public interests and policy objectives Commission Delegated Regulation 814/2013 has been adopted under Directive 2009/125/EC establishing a framework for the setting of ecodesign requirements for energy-related products. This Directive establishes the framework for the setting of Union ecodesign requirements for energy-related products with the aim of ensuring the free movement of such products within the internal market. It contributes to the sustainable development by increasing energy efficiency and the level of protection of the environment, while at the same time increasing the security of supply. Commission Delegated Regulation 812/2013 has been adopted under Directive 2010/30/EU on the indicating by labelling and standard product information of the consumption of energy and other resources by energy-related products. This Directive establishes a framework for the harmonisation of national measures on end-user information, particularly by means of labelling and standard product information, on the consumption of energy and where relevant other essential resources during use, and supplementary information concerning energyrelated products, thereby allowing end-users to choose more efficient products. These two Commission Regulations (referred to below as "the Regulations") require that the measurement and calculation procedures for establishing energy performances and other environmental impacts shall be reliable, accurate and reproducible and take into account the 1 2 3 4 5 OJ L 239, 6.9.2013, p 162. OJ L 285, 31.10.2009, p. 10. OJ L 239, 6.9.2013, p 83. OJ L 153, 18.6.2010, p. 1. OJ C xxx, xx.xx.2014, p. x (to be published) EN 2 EN
generally recognised state of the art, in order to ensure comparable measurement and calculation procedures for the product types in the scope of the Regulations and to facilitate market surveillance activities. 2. ACCEPTANCE OF THE REQUEST The ESOs are asked to inform the Commission within one month after the receipt of this request whether they accept it. Conditional acceptance is considered as a refusal. The acceptance reply may include a request for Union funding or may indicate if Union funding available for activities pursuant to Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 is applied later and informing also on estimated amount needed and estimated date for a possible request. Such a funding request shall respect deadlines set in this standardisation request and in the mandated work programme, as agreed with the Commission according to point 5.4, for the execution of the standardisation work. 3. EXPIRATION Where the standardisation request is not accepted by any of the ESOs, this request shall expire three (3) months after the notification of this Decision to the ESOs. 4.
