Peru Postpones Implementation of New Requirements for Mandatory Certification of Energy Appliances

On April 6, 2019, Peruvian Government published Supreme Decree No. 009-2019-EM to postpone the date of implementation of requirements for mandatory certification established by Technical Regulation on the Energy Efficiency Labelling of Energy Using Equipment No. 009-2017-EM of 07.04.2017.

According to the new Decree, requirements to submit a Certificate of Conformity will enter into force gradually for the following energy appliances within the following deadlines:

 

  • For household lamps and similar products for general lighting — up to 210 calendar days after April 7, 2019 — till November 3, 2019  
  • For three-phase asynchronous or induction electric motors with squirrel cage rotor —up to 240 calendar days after April 7, 2019 — till December 3, 2019  
  • Up to 360 calendar days after April 7, 2019 — till April 1, 2020 — for the following products:  
  • domestic refrigeration equipment  
  • household washing machines  
  • household tumble dryers  
  • air conditioners  
  • domestic water heaters  
  • For ballasts for household and similar fluorescent lamps and boilers — up to 360 calendar days after publication — till April 1, 2020

During the transition period, importers, distributors and/or sellers must incorporate the energy efficiency label complying with the Technical Regulation and its Annexes without the need to present a certificate of conformity. Each annex contains an image of the Energy Efficiency Label for its specific product.

For the whole transition period, importers, distributors and/or sellers are also subject to inspection and respective sanctions in case of non-compliance with items 12.2 i), ii) and iii) of the Technical Regulation. They may use national or international accredited or non-accredited testing laboratories to carry out the tests and/or evaluations necessary to report the information and comply with the Energy Efficiency Labeling requirements.
