The code (10 CFR § 431.97 - Energy efficiency standards) defines energy efficiency ratio and combined energy efficiency ratio of commercial air conditioners and heat pumps.

Hereafter the Minimum Cooling Efficiency Standards for Air Conditioning and Heating Equipment will be enumerated, this foes not include single package vertical air conditioners and single package vertical heat pumps, packaged terminal air conditioners and packaged terminal heat pumps, computer room air conditioners, variable refrigerant flow multi-split air conditioners and heat pumps, and double-duct air-cooled commercial package air conditioning and heating equipment. These are enumerated in other policy entries.

The compliance date varies across different equipment and it is thus specified next to the relative standers. Compliance dates have to be intended as the date equipment manufactured after which need to comply with the standard.

The $7 Trillion AI Boom Is Running Out of Power

Forget the chips. Forget the code. The most expensive, in-demand commodity in the entire $3-trillion AI revolution is not a patented algorithm or a new Nvidia GPU. It&#039;s power. Specifically, a secure, high-voltage connection to the electrical grid that can deliver $100-500 million worth of juice to a new data center. Right now, the largest, richest companies on Earth—Google, Microsoft, Amazon—are in an unprecedented global land rush for energy. They are competing with small cities, massive manufacturing plants, and each other, all because…

Colombia&#039;s Cocaine Trade Now Outearns Its Oil Exports

Drug lords in Colombia are making more money from cocaine than the government is making from crude oil sales, a report from a Colombian university has found. At $16.5 billion for 2024, cocaine revenues surpassed oil export revenues, which stood at around $15 billion that year, UPI reported, citing the research from EAFIT University. Oil export revenues, however, remain Colombia’s largest export revenue generator, the research showed. Together with coal exports, oil exceeds the illicit trade in cocaine. Still, cocaine revenues in 2024 were…

Geothermal Could Power 65 Million U.S. Homes by 2050, DOE Says

“It’s going to be the decade of geothermal,” Cindy Taff, chief executive of geothermal company Sage Geosystems, told The Hill in February of 2025. Over a year later, it is becoming increasingly evident that Taff is definitely onto something. Although geothermal energy is still a tiny sector and faces some significant headwinds when it comes to its up-front installation and development costs, it has numerous competitive edges over other, more common energy sources. It’s clean, it’s constant, it’s politically popular,…

Asia&#039;s Crude Buying Spree Is Running Out of Steam

Asian refiners have reduced their spot purchases of Middle East crude for loading this month and next, following three weeks in which they had purchased millions of barrels of UAE, Saudi, and Iraqi crude. Lingering uncertainties about the navigability of the Strait of Hormuz and high freight costs have deterred Asian buyers from continuing the buying spree that began earlier this month, with millions of barrels of Abu Dhabi crude snapped up in spot trades. Incentives to Buy Immediately Wane Yet, refiners in Asia have spent the better part of the…
