Energy-Related Savings
EPEAT’s requirement that registered products meet, and often exceed, the latest ENERGY STAR specifications means these products will consume less energy throughout their useful life, resulting in:

• Savings of 38.7 million kWh of electricity—enough to power 3,030 U.S. homes for a year
• Reduction of 6,640 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions— equivalent to taking 4,774 average U.S. passenger cars off the road for a year
• Lifetime cost savings of $4,000,000
