U.S. EPA Energy Star News

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded CalPortland Company the National 2009 ENERGY STAR Award for Sustained Excellence in recognition of its continued leadership in protecting our environment through energy efficiency. CalPortland’s accomplishment over five consecutive years is a feat that has never been matched by any other U.S. building materials company.
Kaeser Compressors, Inc. announced its US headquarters building has earned the ENERGY STAR Label! Kaeser became an ENERGY STAR Partner in 2009, and its headquarters in Fredericksburg, Virginia earned the label this year with a rating of 83 – well above the national average and exceeding ENERGY STAR requirements.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star program has helped improve the energy efficiency of the auto manufacturing industry, which has cut fossil fuel use by 12 percent and reduced greenhouse gases by more than 700,000 tons of carbon dioxide, according to a recent report by the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions at Duke University. The emissions reductions, which help to fight climate change, equal the emissions from the electricity use of more than 80,000 homes for a year.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recognized the first group of manufacturing sites that have met the Energy Star Challenge for Industry and reduced their energy intensity by 10 percent within 5 years or less. The U.S. manufacturing industry is responsible for nearly 30 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States and spends almost $100 billion annually on energy.
Recognizing its leadership in efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through energy efficiency, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has honored NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital with an ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Award for Sustained Excellence in Energy Management, the energy program's highest honor. It is the fifth time the Hospital has been honored by the EPA — the most of any hospital in the country.
