Energy StarEnergy Star information ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy that helps us all save money and protect the environment through energy efficient products and practices. In 1992 the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) introduced ENERGY STAR as a voluntary labeling program designed to identify and promote energy-efficient appliances and products to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Computers and monitors were the first labeled products. Through 1995, EPA expanded the label to additional office equipment products and residential heating and cooling equipment. In 1996, EPA partnered with the US Department of Energy for particular product categories. The ENERGYSTAR label is now on major appliances, office equipment, lighting, home electronics, and more. EPA has also extended the label to cover new homes and commercial and industrial buildings. Through its partnerships with more than 12,000 private and public sector organizations, this program delivers the technical information and tools that organizations and consumers need to choose energy-efficient solutions and best management practices. Energy Star energy-efficient appliances have successfully delivered energy and cost savings across the country, saving businesses, organizations, and consumers about $16 billion in 2007 alone. Over the past decade, this program has been a driving force behind the more widespread use of such technological innovations as efficient fluorescent lighting, power management systems for office equipment, and low standby energy use. Recently, energy prices have become a major concern for consumers. ENERGY STAR provides solutions for energy-efficient living, provides a trustworthy label on over 50 product categories (and thousands of models) for the home, and can help you live a greener lifestyle. These products deliver the same or better performance as comparable models while using less energy and saving money. They also provide easy-to-use home and building assessment tools so that homeowners and building managers can start down the path to greater efficiency, cost savings, and green living.
