ENERGY STAR® Certification
From Keith Einsmann, Chief Facilities Officer
We are excited to announce that Deerfield Episcopal Retirement Community has earned the ENERGY STAR® certification!
What is Energy Star®?
It is a program that sets energy efficiency standards for products and facilities such as ours and is administered by the EPA and the Department of Energy. ENERGY STAR® is the only energy efficiency certification in the United States that is based on actual, verified energy performance. This program helps consumers and businesses save money and protect the environment.
Our current ENERGY STAR® score is 83. That means that our Facility outperforms 83 percent of other similar facilities to ours nationwide in energy efficiency.
ENERGY STAR® certified buildings use less energy, cause fewer green-house gas emissions, and are less expensive to operate than their peers-all without sacrifices in performance and comfort.
