At this point the only method allowable for submission of data is hard copy. DOE is evaluating the possibility of providing an option to permit the electronic submission of data. DOE plans to issue in the future a Federal Register Notice regarding reporting methods. Back to Top Question: Our EPS models for Energy Star compliance are simply AC-AC adapters. This is simply the voltage transformer used to convert AC 120V input to AC 6.5/7.3/8.0V ready for the built-in rectifier and filter circuit within the base unit and external charge cradles: a. How do the DOE’s requirements for EPSs intersect with the requirements for Energy Star, including data reporting, selection of certified test labs, and product and packaging labeling for compliance (Energy Star and DOE)? Answer: The ENERGY STAR Program is a voluntary program while the DOE Appliance Standards Program is a mandatory program. Consequently, there will be differences between these programs. DOE and the ENERGY STAR Program use the sam
