What materials are needed to apply for the US DOE energy efficiency certification? The Department of Energy, abbreviated as "DOE," is the full name of the US Department of Energy. The energy efficiency certification issued by DOE, known as DOE certification, is based on relevant US electronics and electrical regulations. DOE has required mandatory compliance with US energy efficiency standards since July 1, 2011.

Level IV standards were enforced starting in February 2016 with the mandatory requirement to meet Level VI standards. Certification requires online registration and verification on the official website. External power supplies like power adapters, switch-mode power supplies, and chargers, as efficient and energy-saving power products, are included in this certification plan.

 

DOE Certified Product Categories:

- Battery Chargers: Includes products with small-capacity batteries such as Bluetooth headsets, Bluetooth speakers, fitness bands, mobile phones, tablets, in-car DVD players, MP3 players, MP4 players, etc.

- External Power Supplies: Includes chargers for commonly used devices like phones and tablets. Currently, DOE mandates that power adapters meet Level VI energy efficiency standards.

 

Common DOE Certification Standards:

- External Power Supplies (EPS): 10 CFR 430, Subpart B, Appendix Z.

- Battery Charging Systems (BCS): 10 CFR 430, Subpart B, Appendix Y.

 

DOE Certification Process:

1. Provide sample products for testing (at least 2 units).

2. Laboratory testing.

3. Issue a report after passing the test.

4. The laboratory arranges registration (requires information on the US importer or US manufacturer).

 

Materials Needed for DOE Certification:

1. Samples.

2. Product technical documentation.

3. Product label.

4. Certification application form, etc.
