China (PRC)
Standards and labels (S&L) are prominent elements in China's sustainable energy initiatives. China's General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine (AQSIQ) is responsible for the review and approval of new energy standards, working under the State Council of the People's Republic of China (PRC) and in cooperation with multiple commissions. As part of China's new energy initiatives, China has implemented a series of minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) and expanded the coverage of its voluntary energy efficiency label for residential, commercial, and industrial products.
