📱đŸ’ģ🖱ī¸đŸŽ§đŸ“ˇ made the switch to USB-C.

Now, chargers must follow, because 400 million sold yearly in the EU means serious waste.

To cut it and make your life simpler, we have updated the ecodesign standards:

✅ USB chargers must include at least one USB-C port & work with detachable cables
✅ Higher energy efficiency and interoperability
✅ New EU logo helps match devices

By 2035, we could save energy, reduce pollution, and save consumers â‚Ŧ100 million a year.

@EUCommission What is the reason for not making USB Power Deliver mandatory?

@Fedihacker @EUCommission
USB PD support is already mandatory for devices that support fast charging (> 15 watt).

Additionally charging range pictograms for min & max charging power are also mandatory for new products.

Thanks for the clarification. I didn't recall PD was mandatory. And now that I look at the picture of the OP I can see there's an XX W marking. đŸ¤Ļ
