DOE ordered Atomi, Inc. ("Atomi") to pay a $975,060 civil penalty after Atomi had manufactured and distributed in commerce in the U.S. multiple units of the noncompliant Atomi brand ceiling fan basic model AT1823. The Order adopted a Settlement Agreement, which reflected settlement terms between DOE and Atomi.
On April 27, 2023, DOE issued a Notice of Noncompliance Determination to Atomi finding that the Atomi brand ceiling fan basic model AT1823 does not comply with applicable energy conservation standards based on not having the design standard of the capability of reversible fan action. Atomi provided DOE records showing the number of units Atomi distributed. Federal law subjects manufacturers and private labelers to civil penalties if those parties distribute in the U.S. products that do not meet applicable energy conservation standards.
