Panasonic Eco Systems North America, division of Panasonic Corporation of North America, has announced that it has received the 2024 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Sustained Excellence Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the 14th time.
“We are extremely grateful for the continued recognition from ENERGY STAR,” says Naoki Kamo, president of Panasonic Eco Systems North America. “Now, more than ever, it is critical that we push the envelope on what it means to be green and energy efficient. We are dedicated to continuous innovation to ensure that better indoor air quality and building standards are easily achieved.”
Each year, the ENERGY STAR program honors a select group of businesses and organizations that have made outstanding contributions to energy efficiency and the transition to a clean energy economy. ENERGY STAR award winners lead their industries in the production, sale, and adoption of energy-efficient products, homes, buildings, services, and strategies. These efforts have saved more than 5 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity over the past 30 years.
“President Biden’s Investing in America agenda creates unprecedented opportunity to build a clean energy economy, and private sector partners through programs like ENERGY STAR are leading the way,” comments EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “I congratulate this year’s ENERGY STAR award winners for their innovation and leadership, in delivering cost-effective energy efficient solutions that create jobs, address climate change, and contribute to a healthier environment for all.”
