Department of Energy 10 CFR Part 430 [EERE-2021-BT-STD-0031] RIN 1904-AF19 ( printed page 84028) AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy. ACTION: Final determination. SUMMARY: The Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended (“EPCA”), prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including non-weatherized oil-fired furnaces (“NWOFs”), mobile home oil-fired furnaces (“MHOFs”), weatherized gas furnaces (“WGFs”), weatherized oil-fired furnaces (“WOFs”), and electric furnaces (“EFs”). EPCA also requires the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) to periodically review its existing standards to determine whether more-stringent, amended standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified, and would result in significant energy savings. In this final determination, DOE has determined that the energy conservation standards for EFs, NWOFs, MHOFs, WOFs, and WGFs do not need to be amended. DATES: The effective date of this final determination is November 18, 2024.
