Comparative energy label

This is a label affixed to vehicles and equipment circulating on the market with different levels of energy efficiency to help consumers choose vehicles and equipment with energy-saving consumption levels.

The comparative energy label has five levels of energy efficiency (from one star to five stars). The five-star label is the best performing label.

The energy comparison label includes the following information:

• Manufacturer: Name of the organization/business that manufactures the product.
• Product name/code: The company's product name or code.
