energiathõhususklassi

Energiatõhususklass is an Estonian term that refers to the energy performance class of a building or appliance. It is a system used to rate how efficiently a building or appliance uses energy. The classification ranges from A, which is the most energy-efficient, to G, which is the least energy-efficient.

For buildings, the energiatõhususklass is determined by several factors, including the building's insulation, heating and cooling systems, ventilation, and the efficiency of its windows and doors. A higher energy performance class indicates that a building requires less energy for heating, cooling, and lighting, leading to lower energy bills and a reduced environmental impact.

For appliances, the energiatõhususklass is based on their energy consumption during normal use. This allows consumers to compare the energy efficiency of different products, such as refrigerators, washing machines, and televisions, and make informed purchasing decisions. Appliances with a higher energiatõhususklass consume less electricity, saving money and contributing to energy conservation.

The energiatõhususklass system is implemented to promote energy saving and encourage the development and use of more energy-efficient technologies and practices. It plays a role in meeting national and international energy and climate goals.
