| Objectives | The overall aim of the work is to develop and publish an energy efficient target for the two main groups of products in the sector – insulated bodies and refrigeration units. | |
| Abstract | There are three main aspects to the proposed process: 1. Developing consensus on how to test for efficiency. 2. Collating and publishing performance data. 3. Developing and publishing performance targets. The work is divided into six tasks: 1. Project Initiation 2. Development of a test specification 3. Data Collection 4. Develop performance targets 5. Publication of the data and targets 6. Awareness raising activities. | |
