Certification introduction
Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is a government agency in Canada that oversees and enforces energy efficiency regulations—the regulations set requirements for minimum energy consumption performance levels for various energy-consuming products, label energy-consuming products, and collect energy use data.
All regulated products imported into Canada for sale or lease or transferred from the manufacturing province to another region (trans-provincial transportation) should meet the energy efficiency standards set by the Energy Efficiency Regulations. Therefore, Natural Resources Canada stipulates that all regulated products must obtain energy efficiency verification marks from certification bodies recognized by the Canadian Standards Council (SCC).
Applicable product range
Washing machines, clothes dryers, dry cleaning machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, ice machines, air conditioners, three-phase induction motors, lamps, televisions, power supplies, gas water heaters, fuel water heaters, gas heaters, gas fireplaces, etc.

At the same time, subsequent certification bodies will conduct annual market sampling inspections, with a sampling rate of approximately 1% Basic model.
The requirements and control scope of the following 7 types of products regarding the "Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards" have been enhanced:
Electric motor
Household gas boiler;
Domestic kerosene boilers;
Dry-type transformer
Large air-conditioning facilities and heat pumps;
Commercial integrated refrigerator;

New requirements are proposed for the following product minimum energy efficiency standards and reporting matters:
Electronic product standby energy consumption
-Audio products
-TV, monitor, etc.
-Video playback products
External power supply
Digital TV adapter
Electric boiler
Single stereo air conditioner and heat pump
Mandatory directives for manufacturers and importers
All manufacturers and importers must follow the directive to ensure that the products produced and imported meet the minimum energy efficiency standards required by the directive. Manufacturers and importers should pass the test of an accredited third-party certification body to obtain a compliance report and certificate.
The Moroccan government implements strict supervision on imported electronic devices, and COC certification is a mandatory requirement to ensure that products comply with local safety, quality, and environmental standards.
COC certification in Egypt is a mandatory market access certification required by the Egyptian government to ensure that products meet national standards and safeguard consumer safety.
Tanzania CoC certification, also known as Certificate of Conformity, is a certification used to confirm that products comply with Tanzanian national standards and regulations.
