Sustainable Business Strategies

Friday, October 2, 2009 by Tom Anderson
Looking for sustainable business strategies? The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) ENERGY STAR program has been sweeping across the nation over the years, and it continues to improve and make saving energy easier for facilities.

While many believe that ENERGY STAR is merely a label, the program offers much more. For example, ENERGY STAR's Portfolio Manager is an excellent resource for health care facilities to benchmark its energy and water consumption. Furthermore, Portfolio Manager allows you to track your progress and compare your energy levels to other health care facilities.

These resources will allow you to target areas within your facility that need improvement. By focusing on these areas, you will be able to reduce your carbon footprint and your energy costs. Utilizing the ENERGY STAR tools should be included in your sustainable business strategy.

If your facility improves enough, you might even be able to earn an ENERGY STAR Rating!
