Welcome to EPEAT

EPEAT is a system to help purchasers in the public and private sectors evaluate, compare and select desktop computers, notebooks and monitors based on their environmental attributes. EPEAT also provides a clear and consistent set of performance criteria for the design of products, and provides an opportunity for manufacturers to secure market recognition for efforts to reduce the environmental impact of its products.

The EPEAT Registry on this web site includes products that have been declared by their manufacturers to be in conformance with the environmental performance standard for electronic products - IEEE 1680- 2006. The standard is summarized here, and may be purchased from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. EPEAT operates a verification program to assure the credibility of the Registry.

Verification Round Three Completed

Round Three details include two findings of nonconformance and recommendations to improve consistency across the IEEE 1680 standard, the EPEAT Registry, and ENERGY STAR compliance processes. More on verification results and other product verification information can be found here.

Products may then achieve a higher level EPEAT “rating” by meeting additional optional criteria, as follows:
