New Energy Star Partners Almost Triple in 2008
The number of commercial and industrial organizations joining ENERGY STAR almost tripled in 2008, accounting for more than 2,000,000,000 (2 billion!) new committed square feet. By the end of 2008, there were more than 2,400 organizations that have committed to adopt continuous energy management practices.
Partnerships between EPA and organizations such as the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), the largest industrial trade association in the U.S., have signed memoranda of understanding (MOU) to work together to improve the energy efficiency of their sectors of the U.S. economy. NAM helps educate U.S. manufacturers that they CAN and SHOULD strategically manage energy in their operations. The savings make this a win-win message and contributes significantly to the total reduction of energy use in the U.S.
