What are the new ecodesign requirements for external power supplies?

The draft Commission Regulation proposes new ecodesign requirements for External Power Supplies (EPS), Battery Chargers for portable batteries, Wireless Chargers, Wireless Charging Pads, and USB Type-C cables. 1. Extending the scope - Wireless Chargers and Battery Chargers for portable batteries, as per Regulation (EU) 2023/1542. 2.

Can you buy a new electronic device without a charger?

Saving money: You can now buy new electronic devices without a charger. This will help consumers save approximately €250 million a year on unnecessary charger purchases. Harmonising fast charging technology: New rules help to ensure that charging speed is the same when using any compatible charger for a device.

Do USB Type-C Chargers need a 'common Charger' logo?

Requiring an EU 'Common Charger' logo on USB Type-C chargers to inform consumers about their interoperability. 6. Requiring USB Type-C chargers to operate with detachable cables and be marked at each port with the power supported. 7.

Should EPs be a USB Type-C charger?

Introducing a general requirement for EPS to be USB Type-C chargers to power a range of products not covered by the Radio Equipment Directive in order to maximize interoperability. 8. Excluding certain EPS from interoperability requirements.

Are wireless charging pads energy efficient?

A requirement on energy efficiency of the wireless charging pad was discarded as efficiency of the entire charging process is a system aspect beyond the scope of the proposed revised regulation, being determined by the interplay of the charging pad, its power supply, and the device to be charged.

Why should you use a USB-C charger?

This will reduce the number of chargers you need to buy, help minimise electronic waste and simplify your everyday life. Here are some benefits of the common charger: Increasing consumer convenience: You can charge your mobile phone and other similar electronic devices with one USB-C charger, regardless of the device brand.

Should telecommunication operators invest in a telecom battery backup system?

Investing in a telecom battery backup system is always one of the priorities for telecommunication operators in the 5G era. Sunwoda 48V telecom batteries have a capacity covering 50Ah-150Ah, which can easily meet the power backup needs of macro and micro base stations.

What is a telecom battery backup system?

A telecom battery backup system is a comprehensive portfolio of energy storage batteries used as backup power for base stations to ensure a reliable and stable power supply. As we are entering the 5G era and the energy consumption of 5G base stations has been substantially increasing, this system is playing a more significant role than ever before.

Do Telecom batteries need to be replaced?

All this equipment requires clean, stable, reliable power. Traditional telecom backup power has used large inefficient lead acid batteries that need frequent maintenance and replacement every few years. Actual run time is difficult to predict, and telecom battery cells can fail with little to no warning.

What is a lithium ion battery backup system?

The EBT ensures consistent voltage and current delivery from the entire system of connected modules, which maximizes run-time and power delivery. This technology also solves many of the challenges system designers encounter when implementing a Lithium Ion Battery backup solution.

What is a CIBR battery rack?

Charles Indoor Battery Racks (CIBR) are modular, seismic Zone 4 rated (GR-487 certified) battery rack systems designed to fit the footprint of VRLA batteries from a variety of battery manufacturers or Saft Tel.X Ni-Cd batteries. In addition to several standard configurations, there are also single tray options that can be built on site.
