Directive 2009/125/EC and Comission Regulation (EU) No 206/2012

Source: International Energy Agency
Last updated: 22 July 2020

Energy efficiency policies in Turkey are based on the legal framework of the Energy Efficiency Law No. 5627 of 2007 and several by-laws or regulations issued by the competent ministries.

 

Turkey has also transposed the EU Eco-design and Labelling Directives through the Regulation on the eco-design for energy-related products (EU/2009/125), which was published in the Official Gazette of 7 October 2010, by MSIT. The transposition was carried out by MSIT by adopting product-related energy labels and eco-design communiqués for implementation (secondary legislation).

 

This Regulation establishes eco-design requirements for the placing on the market of electric mains-operated air conditioners with a rated capacity of = 12 kW for cooling, or heating if the product has no cooling function, and comfort fans with an electric fan power input = 125W.

 

From 1 January 2013 the following standards are applicable:

double duct air conditioners:

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150,  EER 2.40, COP 2.36;

- if GWP of refrigerant  = 150, EER 2.16, COP 2.12;

single duct air conditioners:

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150,  EER 2.40, COP 1.80;

- if GWP of refrigerant  = 150, EER 2.16, COP 1.62.

air conditioners except double ducts and single ducts

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150,  SER 3.60, SCOP(Average heating season) 3.40;

- if GWP of refrigerant  = 150, SER 3.24, SCOP(Average heating season) 3.06.

 

From 1 January 2014 the following standards are applicable:

double duct air conditioners:

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150 for < 6 kW of rated capacity, EER 2.60, COP 2.60;

- if GWP of refrigerant  = 150 for < 6 kW of rated capacity, EER 2.34, COP 2.34;

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150 for 6-12 kW,  EER 2.60, COP 2.60;

- if GWP of refrigerant  =  150 for 6-12 kW, EER 2.34, COP 2.34;

single duct air conditioners:

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150 for  < 6 kW of rated capacity, EER 2.60, COP 2.04;

- if GWP of refrigerant  = 150 for < 6 kW of rated capacity, EER 2.34, COP 1.84;

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150 for 6-12 kW,  EER 2.60, COP 2.04;

- if GWP of refrigerant  =  150 for 6-12 kW, EER 2.34, COP 1.84;

air conditioners except double ducts and single ducts

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150 for < 6 kW of rated capacity, SEER 4.60, SCOP (heating season Average) 3.80;

- if GWP of refrigerant  = 150 for < 6 kW of rated capacity, SEER 4.14, SCOP (heating season Average) 3.42;

- if GWP of refrigerant > 150  for 6-12 kW,  SEER 4.30, SCOP(Average heating season) 3.80;

- if GWP of refrigerant  =  150 for 6-12 kW, SEER 3.87, SCOP(Average heating season) 3.42.
