Welcome to the Review study, Evaluation and Impact Assessment support study for household dishwashers

At the end of June 2024, the European Commission published the Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 establishing a framework forthe setting of ecodesign requirements for sustainable products (ESPR, Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation). The Regulation came into force on 18 July 2024 and will enable the setting of far-reaching performance and information-related requirements – known as ‘ecodesign requirements’ – for specific product groups, to make them more environmentally sustainable and circular. The ESPR establishes a framework for setting ecodesign requirements on specific product groups, it replaces the current
Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC.

In the staff working document on Ecodesign and Energylabelling Working Plan 2022-2024, a review study for household dishwashers was announced.

In this context, DG Environment has commissioned the project team to assist the Commission with the Review study (technical analysis and preparatory study), the back-to-back Evaluation and Impact Assessment support study for the review of:

  • Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/2022 of 1 October 2019 laying down ecodesign requirements for household dishwasher amended by Commission Regulation (EU) 2021/341, and
  • Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/2017 of 11 March 2019 with regard to energy labelling of household dishwashers as amended by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/340.

The Review study and the Evaluation and Impact Assessment support study for household dishwashers started in June 2024 and are expected to be completed by December 2026.

Reports and other related documents will be published in the Documents section of this website.

The project team will invite registered stakeholders to express their views and to provide comments on draft deliverables of the preparatory study in writing and during the stakeholder meetings. Interested stakeholders are encouraged to register (see further below).
