NRCan certification in Canada

Date of issue:2020-05-13

Canada's Department of natural resources (NRCan) is Canada's regulatory authority for the development of energy efficiency standards for industrial products and consumer goods. Requirements have been established for more than 50 separate energy consumption product categories manufactured, sold or imported into Canada. Suppliers of these products need to have their products tested in accordance with relevant standards by an independent certification authority to prove that their products comply with relevant regulations.
