ENERGY STAR is a government program (public/private partnership) that gives people the
power to protect the environment in a cost effective way and without sacrificing quality or
product features. Products that earn the ENERGY STAR prevent greenhouse gas emissions by
meeting strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the US Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and the US Department of Energy (DOE). In the average home, 75% of all electricity
used to power home electronics is consumed while the products are turned off. ENERGY STAR
qualified home electronic products in the off position use up to 50% less energy than
conventional equipment. More information refers to http://www.energystar.gov and http://
