There are many CFLs and compact fluorescent fixtures on the market, but only ENERGY STAR qualified products guarantee quality and performance. ENERGY STAR qualified bulbs and fixtures provide more lumens per watt, a variety of warm and cool tones to choose from, and a long dependable life. ENERGY STAR qualified bulbs and fixtures can also help you save money on your energy bills, saving up to 75% versus incandescent lights.
ENERGY STAR was introduced by the US Environmental Protection Agency in 1992 as a voluntary labeling program designed to identify and promote energy-efficient products, in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. EPA partnered with the US Department of Energy in 1996 to promote the ENERGY STAR label, with each agency taking responsibility for particular product categories. ENERGY STAR has expanded to cover new homes, most of the buildings sector, residential heating and cooling equipment, major appliances, office equipment, lighting, consumer electronics, and more product areas.
