Winners of the EPA’s 2012 Energy Star Awards

Energy Star is a United States government program created in 1992 by the US
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Originally it was conceived as an attempt to reduce energy consumption and
greenhouse gas emission by power plants. What began as a voluntary
labelling program has grown in to one of the largest efforts worldwide to
promote energy efficient consumer products.

Energy Star labels are found
on over 40 product categories and in the year 2005 alone is responsible for
saving consumers over 12 billion dollars. On March 26th 2012, the EPA and DOE honored businesses and organizations for their
outstanding contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions through energy
efficiency at the 2012 ENERGY STAR Awards ceremony.
