Germany: Blue Angel ecolabel now includes heat pumps and liquid coolers

The 2023 edition of the German “Blue Angel” ecolabel now includes domestic heat pumps and “liquid coolers”.
The Blue Angel is the environmental label of the German Federal Government. Initially introduced in 1978, it is one of the first environmental label in the world. [1] The Blue Angel label sets voluntary standards, giving manufacturers the opportunity to improve and promote the environmental footprint of their products. In June 2023, The German Environment Ministry approved the application of the Blue Angel ecolabel to new groups of products, including heat pumps and liquid coolers (or chillers). [2]
