EPA Announces 2017 ENERGY STAR® Certified Manufacturing Plants
Tuesday, March 27, 2018
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced today that 93 manufacturing plants earned ENERGY STAR certification for their superior energy performance in 2017. Together, these plants reduced their energy bills by almost $340 million, saved more than 60 trillion British thermal units (TBtu) of energy, and achieved broad emissions reductions, including 4 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions. The energy savings is enough to meet the annual energy needs of almost 360,000 American households.
