Energy efficiency implies “using less energy to offer the same service.” It is not only about how little energy a device consumes but also about striking a balance between the energy demand and the supply. The energy Efficiency Rating/Ratio of a unit is the ratio of the Quantity of cooling energy to the amount of energy required to power the unit.
The SASO Energy Efficiency Rating Certificate aims to test the imported products against technical regulations set by SASO to rationalize and increase the energy efficiency in production and consumption to preserve the KSA natural resources and economic and social welfare of the KSA. The Energy Efficiency Rating Certificate is issued to products imported to Saudi Arabia after a satisfactory examination of their energy efficiency levels against the SASO technical regulations.
