What Is the Energy Star Rating?
The Energy Star program, created by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), identifies energy-efficient products and buildings that reduce energy consumption, lower costs, and help protect the environment. Products with the Energy Star label meet strict criteria for energy efficiency, making it easier for you to choose appliances, lighting, and heating and cooling equipment that save money and conserve energy.
The impact is significant—according to the EPA, by December 2012, families and businesses had saved over $230 billion on utility bills and reduced greenhouse gas emissions by more than 1.8 billion metric tons through Energy Star-rated products and buildings.
