ENERGY STAR is the trusted, government-backed symbol for energy efficiency that serves as a guide for products that protect the environment and help customers to save money. The energy star label was established to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants caused by inefficient use of energy, and make it simple for consumers to identify and purchase energy-efficient products that offer savings on energy bills without sacrificing performance, features, and comfort.
The ENERGY STAR for buildings & manufacturing plants:
Did you know that a building or manufacturing plant can earn the ENERGY STAR label just like your home appliances? An ENERGY STAR qualified facility meets strict energy performance standards set by EPA and uses less energy, it is also less expensive to operate, and causes fewer greenhouse gas emissions than other manufacturing plants. Energy use in commercial buildings and manufacturing plants account for nearly half of all energy consumption in the U.S. at a cost of over $200 billion per year, more than any other sector of the economy. Commercial and industrial facilities are also responsible for nearly half of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions which contribute to global warming.
