The Meralco Orange Tag is developed by the Meralco Power Lab and is attached to appliances just like the yellow Energy Guide labels. While the yellow labels bear the Energy Efficiency Factor (EEF) of the appliance, the Orange Tag shows its estimated cost per hour. This is very useful if you’re choosing between appliances as you can now see which one costs less/more when it comes to energy consumption.
