The Department of Energy has applied for an extension of OMB Control Number 1910-1400.  The current templates remain valid until the Office of Management and Budget reaches a conclusion on that package.

Manufacturers, including importers, must use the product-specific templates to certify compliance to the U.S. Department of Energy prior to distributing a basic model to commerce in the United States and annually thereafter. These templates must then be submitted electronically to the Department through the Compliance Certification Management System.

The templates listed below are for submissions of 100 models or fewer. Templates for submissions of up to 1,000 models are available on request.

The templates listed below are for models covered by current reporting requirements and test procedures. Templates for models covered by prior requirements or procedures are available on request.

Instructions for completing the templates can be found here:

• Instructions for CCMS Reporting Certification & Templates V5
  
• Instructions for CCMS Reporting Certification & Templates V5, Electric Motors

Note: All of the information in the product-specific templates is a reflection of the certification and compliance information that is required to be submitted pursuant to Part 429. It is mandatory that you complete the compliance statement embedded in each product-template before uploading it to CCMS.

*The annual reporting requirement covers: (1) all discontinued basic models previously certified that have not previously been reported as discontinued (Action= "D" for Discontinued); (2) all previously certified basic models that are still in distribution in commerce that are unchanged (Action- "E" for existing/carry-over model); and (3) all previously certified basic models that are still in distribution in commerce but for which the manufacturer needs to report new or changed information (Action= "C" for Correction) (e.g., new brand info, new or different model numbers, model rating). Manufacturers may also choose to include in their annual certification report any new models that have not previously certified that a manufacturer anticipates offering for distribution in commerce (action= "N" for New).

**CCMS product-specific templates are revised in response to questions received from interested parties to provide greater clarity, to correct errors, and/or to reflect changes in DOE's regulations. When a new, product-specific template becomes available, manufacturers must use the latest version for the next required submission going forward (i.e., new basic model submissions or annual submissions). The availability of a new, product-specific template does not indicate a need to resubmit existing certifications.

***DOE is collecting information for the Federal Trade Commission pursuant to 16 CFR Part 305. The expiration date for OMB Control Number 3084-0069 for these reporting requirements has been extended to March 31, 2024.

**** These templates include fields for entering data necessary to determine qualification for CEE Tier 1 (or 2, if applicable) specifications. Entry of data in these additional CEE fields is optional and not required for DOE compliance certification purposes pursuant to 10 CFR part 429. However, if a manufacturer desires to have a model included on a qualified product list for any of its basic models under the applicable CEE product specification, the CEE data fields must contain the specified data for those models. To ensure that CEE-qualified models currently in production remain on the CEE qualified product list, subsequent data submittals in CCMS must continue to include the data in the CEE fields. Leaving those fields blank in subsequent submissions may result in those basic models being dropped from the current CEE qualified product list.
