The
Energy Star Report
The Energy Star label denotes a product as being
at 
the
top of its class for energy efficiency. Only products that meet the U.S. Department
of Energy and the US Environmental Protection Agency standards for energy efficiency
qualify for the Energy Star. Consumers save money with Energy Star products because
they use less energy than conventional products and cost less to operate. The
Energy Star is found on a wide variety of products ranging from electronics and
appliances, to windows, and even new houses! Recycle Ann Arbor has teamed up with
the Michigan Department of Consumer and Industry Services to locate Energy Star
retailers and test consumer awareness in Ann Arbor.
