In addressing climate change and meeting countries National Determined Contribution (NDC) and national cooling action plan (NCAP) on energy ambitious targets in the year 2030, Kenya made several strides in drafting the appliances energy performance and labelling regulations of 2016. Energy efficiency enables distributed off-grid renewable energy systems, from solar home systems to renewable micro-grids, to deliver energy services that otherwise might be economically or technically infeasible in resource-constrained settings. This paper reviews specific multivariate econometric models over the period of 2016 to 2022 and summarizes the impact of minimum energy performance (MEPs) and the energy labels policies and regulations enacted. This paper assesses the energy efficiency label for cold chain appliances and identifies issues, potential improvements, and challenges for successfully nudging consumers towards highly energy efficiency cold chain appliances.
