Energy Conservation Program: Exempt Power Supplies Under the EPS Service Parts Act of 2014
DOE removes reporting requirements for exempt external power supplies under the EPS Service Parts Act, reducing compliance burden for small businesses and manufacturers.
Aforeworn detected this change in the ESG & Climate Disclosure space on July 5, 2026 and published this briefing so affected operators are forewarned rather than caught off guard. It is rated Low urgency. Manufacturers and importers of exempt external power supplies (EPS) for service parts should confirm how it applies to their specific situation before acting. There is a time constraint attached: Effective upon publication (April 28, 2026)..
