2025 in review: advancing energy efficiency through collaboration
As winter approaches, energy savings are once again top of mind for businesses and the public sector. In our final newsletter of the year, we not only look back on 2025 but celebrate a year defined by collaboration.
Throughout 2025, the ETL has strengthened working relationships across government, industry and specification platforms, making it easier than ever for manufacturers to list high-performing energy saving products and for buyers to find trusted energy efficient solutions. This issue rounds up the year’s highlights, from collaborations and new product launches to the latest inspiring interview in our Women Driving Change series, bringing together the best of a year shaped by growth and shared progress.
LATEST UPDATES
2025 in review: growth through collaboration and connection
2025 has been a year of practical impact for the ETL, helping manufacturers, specifiers and buyers engage more easily with energy efficient technologies.
Collaborations with SKArating, Eurovent and NBS, alongside engagement with trade associations and specification platforms, have expanded visibility and supported informed decision-making.
This year we welcomed over 150 new product listings while enhanced digital resources, including BIM objects and technical specifications, have made ETL listed technologies easier to access for buyers and simplified application for manufacturers.
NBS has introduced new functionality that allows ETL manufacturers to demonstrate that their products are ETL listed directly on NBS Source, with onboarding also becoming more efficient through the ETL API. If your products appear on both NBS Source and the ETL, make sure you update your NBS listings to reflect this. In the article, Dr Stephen Hamil, Innovation Director at NBS, explains how clearer ETL visibility supports better specification practice and gives manufacturers a stronger presence on procurement platforms.
Women Driving Change: Dr Zainab Dangana on leadership and innovation
In our final interview of 2025, Dr Zainab, Head of Sustainable Technology Services at Wates Group, shares her approach to leadership. Trained as an architect, she has spent over 20 years translating research into practical frameworks that promote the adoption of sustainable innovations and support progress towards net zero. Dr Zainab’s work is a collective effort to scale solutions and drive meaningful, system-wide change across the built environment, and she shares valuable insights on leadership and career growth for women in engineering. Her story closes a year of inspiring conversations with women shaping the future of energy efficiency, and we extend a special thank you to everyone who contributed to the series.
Loxone joins the ETL with Building Energy Management Systems
We are pleased to welcome Loxone with the addition of 3 Building Energy Management Systems under the Energy Monitoring product category. These systems help identify unnecessary energy use and support building owners, operators and end-users in improving overall energy performance.
They shared:"Loxone meets the government's robust requirements for a building energy management system, proving compliance with strict efficiency standards. This recognition enables specifiers and facility managers to select a proven building energy management system for offices, schools, healthcare, and more – delivering measurable energy savings, operational reliability, and reduced whole-life costs."
Glen Dimplex joins the ETL with new Heat Pumps
We are pleased to welcome Glen Dimplex to the ETL with the addition of 3 Air to Domestic Hot Water Heat Pumps – the first of this sub-category to be listed on the ETL. These systems use a refrigeration cycle to transfer heat from the surrounding air into a hot water system, offering an efficient alternative to conventional heating.
They explained: "Being listed on the Energy Technology List reinforces Dimplex's commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency. The Edel Hot Water Heat Pump exemplifies our drive to reduce carbon emissions and support greener living, helping customers achieve significant energy savings while contributing to a more sustainable future."
Prefect Controls add HVAC Building Controls
Prefect Controls have added a new HVAC Building Control System to the ETL under the HVAC Equipment category. This system helps building operators and facilities managers maintain optimal indoor conditions while reducing energy use.
They said: “Prefect Controls ETL listed products exemplify energy efficient innovation that reduces energy consumption and carbon emissions. This inclusion demonstrates customer savings and measurable sustainability outcomes, aligning with Prefect’s environmental objectives and commitment to responsible technology.”
Welcoming Lainox Ali to the ETL
Lainox Ali have added 8 Combination Steam Ovens to the ETL. Part of the Professional Foodservice Equipment category, combi-steam ovens deliver high energy efficiency, helping hospitality operators lower environmental impact while maintaining performance and reliability in professional kitchens.
They shared: “The ETL certification confirms our commitment to sustainability. Our combi ovens ensure high energy efficiency, reducing consumption and environmental impact. Being listed on ETL allows us to promote responsible solutions in the Hospitality, Restaurant and Catering sector, fully aligned with Lainox’s green objectives.”
Power Quality Expert expand listings
2 new products were added to the Energy Monitoring category: A Digital Fault Recorder and a Power Quality Analyser, bringing the total number of Power Quality Expert’s listed products to 21. These technologies help organisations track, analyse and optimise energy performance, supporting accurate measurement and reduced energy waste.
They explained:“The quality of the power we use, and that is generated through renewables projects for the country’s sustainable energy journey, is just as important as how efficiently it is used. The products we have approved with the ETL can provide the information needed to help maintain a dependable electrical network.”
MITA Cooling Technologies expand Evaporative Condenser range
MITA Cooling Technologies added 9 new Evaporative Condensers to the ETL, bringing their total to 12 listed models. Evaporative condensers enable refrigeration systems to operate with lower head pressures and higher efficiencies than air-cooled or water-cooled alternatives. Part of the Refrigeration Equipment category, these systems deliver reliable cooling performance across industrial and commercial applications.
NORD Gear add 46 new products to the ETL
These include Variable Speed Drives and Converter-Fed Motors, bringing their total number of listed products to around 900. These technologies allow precise control of motor speed and torque, improving energy efficiency across a wide range of industrial applications such as conveyor systems, pumps and mixers.
Husky expands range on the ETL
Husky has added a further 2 new Refrigerated Display Cabinets to the ETL. These efficient units provide reliable cooling performance while reducing energy use in retail and hospitality environments.
