ERP Legislation
What is ERP legislation?
ErP (Energy related Product) Legislation was introduced in 2009 with the aim to reduce EU carbon emissions by 20%
(compared to those in 2005) by 2020.
With few exceptions, all lamp technologies are affected by the new legislation, supporting the drive towards most
efficient technologies. All lamps have to achieve minimum energy efficiency and performance criteria, resulting in the
poorer performing lamps no longer being allowed for introduction into the EU market.
As with all relevant legislation, Sylvania has worked to ensure that its entire range of lamps intended for use in the EU
market meet or exceed the minimum requirements of ErP legislation. The updates to the ErP legislation will take effect
from 1 September, 2013 and Sylvania has taken the opportunity to further improve its range of LED, halogen and CFL
lamps to address changing market dynamics and customer needs.
