Energy Efficient Appliances and Carbon Emission Reductions on ‘Double 11’
Energy Efficient Appliances and Carbon Emission Reductions on ‘Double 11’
In 2018, Energy Foundation China supported the Carbonstop to survey the consumption of energy saving appliances during China’s annual shopping fiesta on “Singles Day/Double 11.”
The report collects the consumption data of energy efficient refrigerators, wash machines, air-conditioners, and TVs on a major e-commerce platform in China, and analyzes how energy efficiency labels, carbon emissions, carbon emission reductions, and prices might affect consumer behavior.
The research findings can help promote energy-saving products and green consumption, and more importantly, they call for public attention to the carbon implication of their daily consumption.
