USA: EPEAT 

I-EPEAT (Ithuluzi Lokuhlola Imvelo Lomkhiqizo We-elekthronikhi) ilebula ye-eco yokusimama kwemikhiqizo ye-elekthronikhi yomhlaba wonke ekhuthazwa yi-United States GEC (Global Electronic Council) ngokusekelwa yi-United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).Ukuqinisekiswa kwe-EPEAT kuthatha indlela yesicelo sokuzithandela sokubhaliswa, ukuqinisekiswa nokuhlolwa yi-Conformity Assessment Body (CAB), kanye nokugadwa minyaka yonke yi-EPEAT.Isitifiketi se-EPEAT sisetha amazinga amathathu egolide, isiliva nethusi ngokusekelwe ezingeni lokuvumelana komkhiqizo.Isitifiketi se-EPEAT sisebenza emikhiqizweni ye-elekthronikhi njengamakhompuyutha, iziqapha, omakhalekhukhwini, omabonakude, okokusebenza kwenethiwekhi, amamojula e-photovoltaic, iziguquli, izinto ezigqokwayo, njll.

Izindinganiso zesitifiketi

I-EPEAT yamukela izindinganiso zochungechunge lwe-IEEE1680 ukuze inikeze ukuhlolwa kwemvelo okugcwele komjikelezo wempilo wemikhiqizo kagesi, futhi ibeka phambili izinhlobo eziyisishiyagalombili zezidingo zemvelo, okuhlanganisa:

Yehlisa noma uqede ukusetshenziswa kwezinto eziyingozi emvelweni

Ukukhethwa kwezinto zokusetshenziswa

Umklamo wemvelo womkhiqizo

Nweba impilo yesevisi yomkhiqizo

Yonga amandla

Ukuphathwa komkhiqizo kadoti

Ukusebenza kwezemvelo kwebhizinisi

Ukupakishwa komkhiqizo

Ngokunaka komhlaba wonke ekusimameni kanye nesidingo esikhulayo sokusimama emikhiqizweni kagesi,I-EPEAT okwamanje ibuyekeza inguqulo entsha yezinga le-EPEAT,ezizohlukaniswa zibe amamojula amane asekelwe kumthelela wokusimama: ukunciphisa ukuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu, ukusetshenziswa okusimeme kwezinsiza, uchungechunge lokuhlinzeka ngobuqotho kanye nokunciphisa amakhemikhali.

Izidingo zokusebenza kwebhethri

Amabhethri amakhompyutha aphathekayo, amaphilisi kanye nomakhalekhukhwini anezidingo ezilandelayo:

Izinga lamanje: IEEE 1680.1-2018 ehlanganiswe ne-IEEE 1680.1a-2020 (Ukuchitshiyelwa)

Izinga elisha: ukusetshenziswa okuzinzile kwezinsiza kanye c ukunciphisa i-hemical

Izidingo zesitifiketi

Amazinga amabili amasha e-EPEAT ahlobene nezidingo zebhethri awokusetshenziswa okuqhubekayo kwezinsiza kanye nokunciphisa amakhemikhali.Owokuqala udlule isikhathi sesibili sokubonisana nomphakathi sohlaka, futhi izinga lokugcina kulindeleke ukuthi likhishwe ngo-Okthoba 2024. Nazi izikhathi ezimbalwa ezibalulekile:

Ngokushesha nje lapho isethi entsha yamazinga ishicilelwe, inhlangano yezitifiketi zokuvumelana kanye namabhizinisi ahlobene angaqala ukwenza isitifiketi esidingekayo sokuvumelana.Ulwazi oludingekayo lokuthola isitifiketi sokuvumelana luzoshicilelwa phakathi nezinyanga ezimbili ngemva kokushicilelwa kwezinga, futhi amabhizinisi angaluthola ohlelweni lokubhalisa lwe-EPEAT.

Ukuze ubhalansise ubude bomjikelezo wokuthuthukiswa komkhiqizo nesidingo sabathengi sokutholakala kwemikhiqizo ebhaliswe nge-EPEAT,imikhiqizo emisha kungabuye ibhaliswe ngaphansi odluleizindinganisokuze kube ngu-Ephreli 1, 2026.
