Ecodesign, Reuse, Repair, Prolonging Lifetime and New Technology – Is it the new paradox?
News
Powerbox (PRBX), one of Europe’s largest power supply companies and a leading force for four decades in optimizing power solutions for demanding applications, has announced the release of its latest White Paper: “Ecodesign, Reuse, Repair, Prolonging Lifetime and New Technology – Is it the new paradox?”
The European Ecodesign is well known for energy related issues such as energy efficiency and standby energy consumption, and many detailed articles have been written on this topic. As one of the key elements of the European Green Deal strategy there is another, less well-known aspect to Ecodesign that’s about reducing waste and granting consumers the ‘Right to Repair’ thus prolonging the lifetime of equipment. Clearly the time is right for ‘Right to Repair’ to be addressed, initially for consumer products that are the visible part of the iceberg, forming part of the much bigger problem of changing our way of working and dealing with the issue of prolonging the lifetime of equipment whilst developing a circular economy. Many business segments will be highly influenced by the new European Directives and will need to figure out new ways to deal with obsolescence. So how will the power supply industry embrace this change and how could it contribute to prolonging the lifetime of equipments and to reduce waste?
