Ecodesign and energy labelling requirements for electronic displays

In collaboration with Deutsche Umwelthilfe, IFixIt, and the Right to Repair Coalition, we provide our recommendations for the review of EU ecodesign and energy labelling requirements for electronic displays.

We welcome proposed measures on real-time energy feedback, minimum duration of software support, and an energy label reform but oppose the proposal to abandon key material-efficiency measures.

This revision should prioritise durability and reliability – with repairability serving as a safeguard when failures occur. Our joint paper contains relevant information about consumer behaviour and preferences, the need for reliability, repairability and circular material requirements.
