“We need to make more conscious choices when it comes to our energy consumption. The ENERGY STAR Canada program and its participants have been very successful in helping Canadians do just that. We are proud to honour this year’s award winners. Their commitment to helping consumers make informed choices about their energy use contributes to our nation’s energy efficiency goals.”

Jim Carr
Canada’s Minister of Natural Resources

• The value of the energy efficiency market was estimated at over $300 billion in 2014 by the International Energy Agency (IEA), and it is expected to grow to $550 billion by 2035. 
  

• In December 2016, the Prime Minister and premiers emphasized their joint commitment to energy efficiency in the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change.

• ENERGY STAR Canada is a voluntary partnership between the Government of Canada and more than 1,500 organizations that manufacture, sell or promote ENERGY STAR–certified products and homes. The program is administered and promoted by Natural Resources Canada.

• In 2015–2016, the ENERGY STAR products program generated approximately 4.0 petajoules (PJ) of energy savings through the promotion of ENERGY STAR–certified appliances, electronics, lighting and equipment. 
  

• The ENERGY STAR Canada Facebook and Twitter feeds provide Canadians with energy saving tips every day.
