DOE's Vending Machine Rule Too Costly, Overly Burdensome, Beverage Industry Says

摘要

The beverage and vending machine industries say an Energy Department proposed rule setting stricter energy efficiency standards for beverage vending machines is neither technologically feasible nor economically justified. The rule, proposed in August, aims to cut the energy consumption of beverage vending machines by 25 percent to 65 percent from current standards, which could lead to energy savings for schools, hospitals and large businesses (46 ER 2334, 8/7/15).
