2025 has been a year of meaningful connection for the ETL. Strengthened by new collaborations across government, industry and specification platforms. These integrations have made it easier for manufacturers to list and promote energy efficient products, and for specifiers, designers and buyers to make informed decisions that support energy efficiency goals.

In the latest instalment of our Women Driving Change series, we speak with Dr Zainab Dangana, Head of Sustainable Technology Services at Wates Group. Drawing on her background in architecture and a PhD in Sustainable Construction and Management, Dr Zainab discusses how research, innovation and collaboration can help transform the built environment.

We are pleased to announce that the ETL has been working closely with NBS, through the scheme’s API, to provide specifiers with an easier route to filter and select ETL listed energy efficient products at the point of design. As a result of this initiative, NBS Source now enables manufacturers to indicate if their products are ETL listed.

The launch of SKArating scheme’s updated Offices Environmental v2.0 framework will carry particular significance for manufacturers of ETL-listed products. The update deepens the link between SKArating and the Energy Technology List, meaning that ETL-listed technologies will play an even more prominent role in sustainable office fit outs.

In this latest instalment of the series, we speak with Caroline Bragg, Chief Executive of the Association for Decentralised Energy (ADE). She shares insights into her career journey, the lessons she has learned about leadership, and the vital role women play in shaping energy efficient technology.

Rooftop heat pump manufacturers can now use their Eurovent Certification test reports to apply for the UK’s Energy Technology List (ETL).

From new partnerships and technical updates to sector engagement and research activity, the first half of the year has seen continued progress for the ETL in helping organisations make informed, sustainability focused decisions.

The foodservice industry has been a strong focus for the ETL since the introduction of the Professional Foodservice Equipment (PFSE) category in November 2022. Through collaboration with the Foodservice Equipment Association (FEA), we're continuing to make it easier for buyers to identify energy saving products and understand their potential benefits.

As part of the ETL’s Women Driving Change in The Energy Savings Industry series, we sat down with Kristina to explore her professional journey, her leadership style, and how she is helping to shape a more inclusive and sustainable future.

The 2025 ETL Research Programme is now underway. It helps maintain the criteria that identify the top 25% of energy efficient products in their class, helping purchasers make informed decisions that lower energy use, costs and emissions.

For those designing, specifying or supplying solutions for commercial buildings, smart building controls provide a proven method to reduce energy use, lower costs and enhance comfort. They play a critical role in futureproofing the assets, meeting net zero targets and complying with evolving sustainability regulations.

At this year’s Hotel, Restaurant & Catering (HRC) show, the ETL team joined manufacturers and industry leaders to discuss the technologies shaping the future of energy efficiency in hospitality.
