How to Disclose ENERGY STAR Scores and Certification in Environmental Product Declarations and Other Resources
This document provides guidance on how to communicate the ENERGY STAR Score of manufacturing plants and reference any plants that have received ENERGY STAR certification within Environmental Product Declarations or in other materials that communicate aspects of a product’s environmental impact.
Integrated Steel Plant EPI
Use this tool to determine the ENERGY STAR 1 - 100 energy performance indicator score of your integrated steel plant. The Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) will help your company improve its energy efficiency by comparing your energy performance to similar integrated steel plants in the U.S. and Canada. The spreadsheet includes instructions for using the EPI, a State of Energy Performance form, and a Facility Performance Report. Manufacturing plants that earn a 75 or higher using this EPI are eligible to earn ENERGY STAR certification for superior energy performance.
A New Benchmark of Energy Performance for Energy Management in U.S. and Canadian Integrated Steel Plants
This paper reports on the work of EPA and the integrated steel industry to develop an Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) for integrated mills that develop and manufacture steel in the United States. The paper describes the data and statistical methods used to construct the EPI for evaluating the energy performance of integrated steel mills in the U.S. and Canada.
Development of ENERGY STAR Energy Performance Indicator for Integrated Steel Mills
This report describes the data and statistical methods used to construct the Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) for integrated steel mills. It also explains how the EPI was developed to provide a plant-level indicator of energy efficiency by working with the steel industry. This report is useful if you would like background information on how EPA's ENERGY STAR Integrated Steel Mill EPI was developed. The report presents the individual equations used to develop the EPI.
