1904-AE49 202110 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1904 Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy EE 1900 Department of Energy DOE Test Procedure for Battery Chargers

The Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), as amended, requires the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to consider every 7 years whether to amend test procedures for battery chargers. In making this determination, DOE must consider whether amended test procedures would more accurately produce test results which measure energy efficiency, or make a determination not to amend the test procedures. Once completed, this rulemaking will fulfill DOE’s statutory obligation to either propose amended test procedures for this equipment or determine that the test procedures do not need to be amended.
