This recorded webinar and the report on it the webinar was based aim to (1) compare the approach and stringency of the various phase-out regulations being introduced in Australia, Canada, the European Union, Japan, Korea and the United States; (2) compare changes in the type of products entering each of these markets, which provide an indication of major outcomes of the various policy implementations to date; (3) identify changes in the overall average efficiencies of the new products entering the market, which should indicate the direction of longer-term efficiency improvements of products installed in households; and (4) identify key areas of concern for policymakers, including areas where additional or modified policy intervention may be required in the future.
