Energy Efficiency Class - Textalk Abicart

Energy Efficiency Class

The energy_efficiency_class attribute allows you to communicate how a product rates on a given energy efficiency scale. When using this attribute, you must also provide the full range by setting both a minimum and maximum value:

  • energy_efficiency_class - the actual rating of the product (e.g. A+)
  • min_energy_efficiency_class - the lowest rating on the scale (e.g. D)
  • max_energy_efficiency_class - the highest rating on the scale (e.g. A+++)

This is an optional field, used exclusively for Google Merchant Center integration.

Important: As of April 2025, these attributes are only available for products targeting Switzerland, Norway, or the United Kingdom. For products targeting EU countries, use the certification attribute instead, which pulls energy efficiency data from the EU's EPREL database.


Setting up the Energy Efficiency Class attribute

1. Enable the attributes

Go to Assortment → Products → Product Settings.

In the panel on the right, locate the Product Attributes section. Scroll down until you find the Energy Efficiency heading.

You will see three sub-attributes: Actual Energy Efficiency Class, Maximum Energy Efficiency Class, and Minimum Energy Efficiency Class. For each one, select the option Include in product feed and click Save.

Note: The option to mark a field as private will hide it from customers, but to send the value to Google you must select the product feed option.


2. Add energy efficiency details to a product

Go to Assortment → Products and open the product you wish to edit.

Scroll to the bottom-right of the product page. You will find the Energy Efficiency fields, where you can enter the actual, minimum, and maximum class values.


3. Export to Google Merchant Center

Once energy efficiency values have been added to a product, they will be included in your Google product feed automatically.

In Google Merchant Center, the energy efficiency information will be displayed on your product listing where supported.
