  • 2025-07352 — Energy Conservation Program: Notice of Decision and Order Granting an Exemption to E.L. Foust Co. From the Department of Energy Air Cleaner Energy Conservation Standards
    💰
    Type:Notice
    Citation:90 FR 17780
    Reading Time:about 13 minutes

    The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has granted E.L. Foust Co., a small business, an exemption from the Tier 1 energy conservation standards for air cleaners until December 30, 2025. This decision was based on the company's financial status and the potential impact on market competition. The Department of Justice agreed that not granting the exemption could reduce competition, as E.L. Foust Co. could lose a major sales channel. The exemption allows the company more time to comply with energy standards, while any future exemption requests for Tier 2 standards would require a new application.

    Simple Explanation

    The government decided to let a small company, E.L. Foust, use less energy for their air cleaners until the end of 2025, so they can stay in business and keep selling their stuff. This was done to make sure other companies don't get too much of an advantage and keep things fair.
