http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/content/press/news/plasma_energy_efficiency.htmlRecent press reports claiming that Plasma TV technology may be banned from the market soon for energy efficiency reasons are factually incorrect.
In a statement made on behalf of the European electronics industry, EICTA* said:
"According to the pertinent EU Directive a technology such as plasma cannot be banned from the market as long as the TV sets (using this technology) comply with energy efficiency requirements.
The EU and its member states are currently working on new regulations to ensure improved energy efficiency of TV sets across all technologies, including:
Plasma TVs
LCD TVs
CRT TVs
All manufacturers will be required to meet these minimum efficiency standards in order to continue producing, importing and selling TV sets in Europe."
* EICTA is the European Information & Communications Technology Industry Association.
