The Determinations are as follows: (1) The *Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps) Determination 2012* (**Determination**) which establishes minimum energy efficiency, energy labelling and high efficiency level requirements, and associated requirements for conducting tests, for air conditioners and heat pumps. (2) The *Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Ballasts for Fluorescent Lamps) Determination 2012* (**Determination**) which establishes minimum energy efficiency, energy labelling and product performance requirements, and associated requirements for conducting tests, for ballasts for fluorescent lamps (**ballasts**) (3) The *Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Close Control Air Conditioners) Determination 2012* (**Determination**) which establishes minimum energy efficiency requirements, and associated requirements for conducting tests, for close control air conditioners. (4) The *Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Clothes Washing Machines) Determination 2012* (**Determination**) which establishes energy labelling and product performance requirements, and associated requirements for conducting tests, for clothes washing machines. Topics of Other Determinations: (5) *Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Digital Television Set-top Boxes) Determination 2012* (6) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Dishwashers) Determination 2012 (7) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Double-capped Fluorescent Lamps) Determination 2012 (8) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Electric Water Heaters) Determination 2012 (9) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (External Power Supplies) Determination 2012 (10) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Household Refrigerating Appliances) Determination 2012 (11) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Incandescent Lamps for General Lighting Services) Determination 2012 (12) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Liquid-chilling Packages Using the Vapour Compression Cycle) Determination 2012 (13) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Power Transformers) Determination 2012 (14) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Refrigerated Display Cabinets) Determination 2012 (15) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Rotary Clothes Dryers) Determination 2012 (16) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Self-ballasted Compact Fluorescent Lamps for General Lighting Services) Determination 2012 (17) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Television) Determination 2012 (18) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Transformers and Electronic Step-down Converters for ELV Lamps) Determination 2012 (19) Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (Three Phase Cage Induction Motors) Determination 2012 All 19 Determinations came into force the 1st of November (the day after they were registered) C&R can help you monitor this legislation and other global legislation relating to energy efficiency and energy labelling and legislation involving each of the products listed above.
