Title, number of pages and language(s) of the notified document: Draft Commission Regulation implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for electronic displays, repealing Regulation (EC) No 642/2009 with regard to ecodesign requirements for televisions and amending Regulation (EC) No 1275/2008 with regard to ecodesign requirements for standby and off mode electric power consumption of electrical and electronic household and office equipment and Regulation (EU) No 617/2013 with regard to ecodesign requirements for computers and computer servers (12 pages + Annex 26 pages, in English)

Description of content: This draft Commission Regulation applies to electronic displays to be placed on the EU market and in particular to televisions and computer monitors.
The draft regulation lays down minimum energy performance requirements and in particular the requirements on maximum power demand in on, standby, network standby and off modes and automatic power down function.
The draft regulation also lays down requirements on resource efficiency-related aspects, including design to enhance extraction of key components, marking of plastic parts and a mercury presence logo.
In accordance with the Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC, electronic displays not meeting these requirements will not be allowed to be placed on the EU market. The draft Regulation is based on the findings of a technical, environmental and economic study which has been carried out with stakeholders.

Objective and rationale, including the nature of urgent problems where applicable: The aim of the draft Regulation is to address regulatory and market failures existing in the electronic displays sector in the EU.
Existing EU measures addressing energy efficiency of televisions were exceeded by an unpredicted technological change. Furthermore, there has been a functional convergence between televisions and computer displays, and as the latter were not covered by the existing requirements, a possible regulatory loophole existed. Several new possibly energy-intensive features, such as network connectivity, and materials resources issues were not addressed by the existing regulations.
These failures have prevented the full realisation of the existing energy and carbon emissions savings potential. The proposed regulation addresses all the identified failures.
