 Preparation of an enabling energy efficiency law, to support
the introduction of a Standards and Labelling system.
 Provide relevant Government ministries with technical
assistance and support for the introduction of the first set of
appliance standard and labelling regulations as well as
support for the design and implementation of support
programs.

enforcement so they can ensure that the new regulations are
applied over and over again.

17. :Strategic Approach of the Project – B
 Transform the appliances market in Jordan towards more
energy efficient technologies through the introduction of
energy performance labelling and a set of minimum energy
performance standards.
 Educate customers on the importance of selecting a high
efficiency appliance to avoid medium- and long-term
operating costs.
