EPEAT Climat+

Accelerating Verified Climate Leadership in Electronics

Climate change is reshaping how the world thinks about technology. Extreme weather, rising emissions, and increasing scrutiny—from purchasers, policymakers, investors, and consumers—are pushing organizations to demand greater transparency and proof of impact. Electronics brands now face a critical moment: climate commitments can no longer sit in sustainability reports alone. They must be demonstrated, verified, and visible.

EPEAT Climate+™ was created to meet this moment.

Climate+ is a designation available to EPEAT® registered products that have been designed and manufactured with climate mitigation at the forefront. It highlights brands taking measurable steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout their operations and supply chains—supported by third-party verification and grounded in science-based expectations.

For purchasers, Climate+ offers a clear signal: these products reflect a company’s genuine climate commitments, validated against a robust set of criteria. For manufacturers, it provides a powerful way to show leadership in a market where environmental performance is increasingly a deciding factor.

Climate+ builds on the strength of the EPEAT ecolabel by adding a focused, credible pathway for companies that want to demonstrate accelerated climate action. It reflects a shared understanding across industry, advocates, and policymakers that meaningful climate progress requires action at both the product and corporate level.

As electronics brands, governments, institutions, and investors look for practical tools to meet climate goals, Climate+ helps connect climate ambition with real-world purchasing decisions.
