Disapproves and nullifies the Department of Energy’s December 23, 2024 energy‑conservation rule establishing standards for walk‑in coolers and walk‑in freezers, so that the rule "shall have no force or effect." The resolution removes the legal obligation to follow that specific DOE standard and prevents that rule from taking effect.
The immediate practical effect is to relieve manufacturers, installers, and operators of regulated walk‑in refrigeration units from complying with the December 2024 standards; it also stops the rule’s projected energy‑savings and emissions reductions. The action shifts regulatory outcomes back to DOE (and to Congress) for any future standard-setting on these products.
