I thought LED bulbs were energy efficient, so puzzled as to why this LED product has the lowest energy rating of G.
Hello Capgem,
Previously the labels ranged from A++ to E, however most products fell into the highest ratings, making it difficult to determine which products were more energy efficient than others. To make this clearer, the energy ratings have moved to an A to G scale, with A being the highest rating and G being the lowest. Products which were previously rated as A++ are rated lower on the new scale. This will allow for new, more energy efficient technologies to fill those higher energy ratings. The performance and energy consumption of the product remains the same.
Hope that helps.
Thank you for using Q&A.
