China Energy Conservation Product Certification Center (CECP) EnergyConservative Certification

The certification for energy saving and environmental-friendly products is a voluntary program aiming to save energy and reduce emissions through stimulating manufacturers to produce more resource efficient products and helping consumers to make more sustainable purchase decisions.

In 1998, CECP began the energy conservation certification program with residential refrigerators. This soon expanded to more than ninety product categories covering home appliances, lighting, electronic, office equipment, industrial products, water saving products and environmental-friendly products. The voluntary Energy Conservative Certification had become CQC’s product certification line. A logo with “节”wording is affixed to certified products.
