资源
The Global Electronics Council provides a number of free resources to help purchasers and manufacturers use our ecolabel registries and learn best practices on how to bring more sustainable IT products and services into the marketplace.
可持续性研究现状
GEC’s State of Sustainability Research presents science-based evidence and data on the social and environmental impacts across the lifecycle of technology products and services, providing the foundation for the development and revision of its sustainability criteria. The research also identifies strategies to reduce sustainability impacts, including existing regulations and voluntary leadership programs, and foster harmonization with global best practices.
采购指南
Purchasers globally are being asked to leverage their procurement process to address a broad number of sustainability challenges and to apply sustainability considerations to the procurement of various new technologies. To assist, GEC has launched the Purchaser Guide Series. The purpose of each guide is to provide purchasers specific procurement questions that can be used throughout the procurement process, and examples of documentation that should be provided in the response. When used as a procurement tool, the Guide can assist purchasers to leverage their purchasing power to address pressing sustainability impacts while meeting the primary goal of achieving a successful procurement. GEC currently offers two Purchaser Guides addressing Labor and Human Rights and Cloud Services. A Guide on Circular Procurements is currently in development.
可持续性影响概述
The EPEAT ecolabel empowers purchasers to meet their organizational sustainability goals through their purchasing decisions. These overview documents explain how EPEAT criteria address specific sustainability impacts including climate change, chemicals of concern, supply chain social impacts, plastics, and zero waste.

The Global Electronics Council (GEC) manages the EPEAT ecolabel. GEC has met the requirements of ISO 14024, which is necessary for managing a Type 1 ecolabel. GEC sets the policies for the EPEAT Program.
The EPEAT ecolabel is the leading global Type 1 ecolabel covering products and services from the technology sector. It identifies more products from a broader range of manufacturers than any other comparable ecolabel. Products currently meeting EPEAT criteria, known as “active” EPEAT-registered products, are listed on this Registry. View the criteria for each EPEAT product category here. Purchasers can search for products based on product category, manufacturer, where the product is expected to be used, or by EPEAT rating (Bronze/Silver/Gold). Further details on EPEAT’s verification process are available in this short educational video.
Coming soon, the Global Electronics Council will launch an ecolabel covering electronic components.
案例研究
The Global Electronics Council has worked with several EPEAT Purchaser Award winners to develop case studies to provide information on how other public/private sector organizations can leverage EPEAT as part of their sustainable procurement activities.
