Abstract
The emergence of new electrical appliances is the origin of the exponential increase in energy demand per capita in Morocco. The present paper focuses on improving energy efficiency for residential equipment in Morocco, through the requirement of a minimum energy performance standards and a labeling system that will guide the consumer to buy performant equipment. Detailed study of labeling scenarios as well as performance standards are elaborated for Tree appliances: televisions (TVs), refrigerators and air conditioners. For each considered product, we estimated the real consumption and the gain by introducing higher energy efficiency relative to a specific efficiency energy indicators and baseline technology. The results show that this constitutes a Major source of energy conservation and affects the goals of Moroccan strategy in efficiency energy.
