Bring your Green to Work
The buildings where we work, shop, play, and learn account for nearly half of the nation’s energy use. Find out how you can save energy and fight climate change by making green choices at work.

Products
Products in more than 50 categories are eligible for the ENERGY STAR. They use less energy, save money, and help protect the environment.

Home Improvement
Making your home more energy efficient with ENERGY STAR can help to reduce high energy bills, improve comfort and help to protect the environment. Improving energy efficiency is also an important first step for homeowners interested in green remodeling. ENERGY STAR can guide you in making your home more efficient — whether you do-it-yourself or hire a qualified professional. 

New Homes
To earn the ENERGY STAR, a home must meet strict guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These homes are at least 15% more energy efficient than homes built to the 2004 International Residential Code (IRC), and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20–30% more efficient than standard homes. 

Buildings
The ENERGY STAR Challenge is a national call-to-action to improve the energy efficiency of America’s commercial and industrial buildings by 10 percent or more.
