SEC. 313. ELECTRIC MOTOR EFFICIENCY STANDARDS.(a) Definitions.—Section 340(13) of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. 6311(13)) is amended—(1) by redesignating subparagraphs (B) through (H) as subparagraphs (C) through (I), respectively; and(2) by striking “(13)(A)” and all that follows through the end of subparagraph (A) and inserting the following:“(13) Electric motor.—“(A) General purpose electric motor (subtype i).—The term ‘general purpose electric motor (subtype I)’ means any motor that meets the definition of ‘General Purpose’ as established in the final rule issued by the Department of Energy entitled ‘Energy Efficiency Program for Certain Commercial and Industrial Equipment: Test Procedures, Labeling, and Certification Requirements for Electric Motors’ (10 CFR 431), as in effect on the date of enactment of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007.“(B) General purpose electric motor (subtype ii).—The term ‘general purpose electric motor (subtype II)’ means motors incorporating the design elements of a general purpose electric motor (subtype I) that are configured as 1 of the following:“(i) A U-Frame Motor.“(ii) A Design C Motor.“(iii) A close-coupled pump motor.“(iv) A Footless motor.“(v) A vertical solid shaft normal thrust motor (as tested in a horizontal configuration).“(vi) An 8-pole motor (900 rpm).“(vii) A poly-phase motor with voltage of not more than 600 volts (other than 230 or 460 volts.”.(b) Standards.—(1) Amendments.—Section 342(b) of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. 6313(b)) is amended—(A) by redesignating paragraphs (2) and (3) as paragraphs (3) and (4), respectively; and(B) by inserting after paragraph (1) the following:“(2) Electric motors.—121 STAT. 1569“(A) General purpose electric motors (subtype i).—Except as provided in subparagraph (B), each general purpose electric motor (subtype I) with a power rating of 1 horsepower or greater, but not greater than 200 horsepower, manufactured (alone or as a component of another piece of equipment) after the 3-year period beginning on the date of enactment of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, shall have a nominal full load efficiency that is not less than as defined in NEMA MG–1 (2006) Table 12–12.“(B) Fire pump motors.—Each fire pump motor manufactured (alone or as a component of another piece of equipment) after the 3-year period beginning on the date of enactment of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 shall have nominal full load efficiency that is not less than as defined in NEMA MG–1 (2006) Table 12–11.“(C) General purpose electric motors (subtype ii).—Each general purpose electric motor (subtype II) with a power rating of 1 horsepower or greater, but not greater than 200 horsepower, manufactured (alone or as a component of another piece of equipment) after the 3-year period beginning on the date of enactment of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, shall have a nominal full load efficiency that is not less than as defined in NEMA MG–1 (2006) Table 12–11.“(D) NEMA design b, general purpose electric motors.—Each NEMA Design B, general purpose electric motor with a power rating of more than 200 horsepower, but not greater than 500 horsepower, manufactured (alone or as a component of another piece of equipment) after the 3-year period beginning on the date of enactment of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, shall have a nominal full load efficiency that is not less than as defined in NEMA MG–1 (2006) Table 12–11.”.(2) Effective date.—The amendments made by paragraph (1) take effect on the date that is 3 years after the date of enactment of this Act.
