What is the Australian GEMS Certification?
GEMS (Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards) is an Australian greenhouse gas and energy efficiency minimum standards regime, involving energy efficiency ratings and energy consumption limit management, applicable to specific energy-related products for market access and labeling.
The Purpose of GEMS Certification
To ensure that products meet energy efficiency regulations, standardize energy efficiency labels and market disclosures, and reduce regulatory risks.
Typically conducted in conjunction with RCM/SAA safety and EMC assessments to form a complete compliance solution.
GEMS Certification Process
1
Applicability Directory Confirmation
- To confirm whether the product is within the scope of the GEMS management directory
- To identify applicable test methods and energy efficiency limits
- To prepare samples and parameter descriptions
2
Testing and Registration
- To conduct energy efficiency/energy consumption testing according to applicable methods
- To complete energy efficiency registration and label application
- To make rectifications and closed-loop verification
3
Label and Compliance Maintenance
- To use energy efficiency labels in accordance with regulations and disclose necessary information
- To regularly track standard and directory updates to maintain consistency
Applicable Products (Examples)
Lighting Products
Lamps, bulbs, and power supplies (as per the directory)
Home Appliances
Refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, and more (as per the directory)
Information Technology Equipment
Displays, and more (as per the directory)
