Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of energy consumption and eco-friendly initiatives, leading them to adopt energy-efficient appliances, which creates opportunities for the market. To mitigate the impacts of climate change,  consumption norms emphasize reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). Restaurants, institutional kitchens, and cafes increasingly prefer appliances displaying the ENERGY STAR symbol, a symbol that signifies a product is energy efficient, saving energy and reducing maintenance costs. A study by the Energy Star program of the U.S. EPA found that food service equipment featuring the ENERGY STAR symbol can save operators USD 5,300 annually or about 340 million BTUs.


Further, the market demand has significantly increased due to the emergence of several casual restaurant chains in North America and Europe. According to several regulatory bodies worldwide, companies must sell certified and tested commercial kitchen appliances.
