The Most Energy-Efficient Manufacturing Plants of 2023
)
Last week, the EPA recognized the 103 U.S. factories to earn Energy Star certification in 2023. The award recognizes manufacturing plants in the top 25% of energy efficiency in their sector.
According to the EPA, these plants prevented more than 8 million metric tons of CO2 emissions—that's the equivalent to the emissions from electricity used by more than 1.5 million homes.
The industrial sector accounts for some 30% of U.S. greenhouse emissions, mainly from energy use in manufacturing plants. Texas had the highest number of efficient plants in 2023 with 11 recognized by the EPA. Kentucky had the most first-time award winners with five.
