Analysis and development of a scoring system for repair and upgrade of products
Final report
Publication metadata
As part of the implementation of the EU action plan for the Circular Economy, the European Commission has carried out a study for the analysis and development of a possible scoring system to inform about the ability to repair and upgrade products. The overall aims of the study, described in the present report, are: 1) To develop a general approach for the assessment of the ability to repare/upgrade energy related products (ErP); 2) To test the feasibility and types of results derived using the general approach on three specific product groups (Laptops, Vacuum Cleaners and Washing Machines). Building on the experience gained by CEN-CENELEC-JTC10 during the development of prEN 45554, a general framework has been proposed that provides technical guidance for the identification of most relevant aspects and priority parts for products on the market, as well as for scoring and aggregating different aspects of repair and upgrade.
