Energy Star compliant
Energy Star compliant products use less energy to save money and the environment. Although Energy Star's criteria and compliance may be comparatively simple to other ecologically concerned standards, the categories are much broader. It may not be long until every electronic device sold in the U.S. is eligible for the Energy Star logo provided it has appropriate energy consumption.
