In the U.S., there are two voluntary specifications available: Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) and the Consortium for Energy Efficiency (CEE). The FEMP recommendations were launched in 1996 and updated in 1999. In December 2002, CEE developed a two-tiered specification. Tier 1 is approximately equal to the FEMP specification and Tier 2 is 20 percent more efficient than Tier 1. At this time, there are no commercial ice-makers on the market that meet Tier 2.
