Through ENERGY STAR, EPA helps manufacturers improve the energy efficiency of their plants. Hundreds of U.S. manufacturers have deployed the ENERGY STAR program’s strategic energy management resources to foster an organizational culture focused on continuous improvement of energy performance. ENERGY STAR industrial focuses provide a non-competitive environment for industry corporate energy managers to work together to build unique and helpful energy management tools for the industry. EPA also provides recognition, through ENERGY STAR, to plants that have achieved certain energy milestones.
