Conserve: Green Is Good

Samsung is dedicated to developing the most energy-efficient products on the market, whether it's a tiny memory chip or a full-scale home entertainment system. Forward-thinking design and state-of-the-art technology ensure that all of our products offer unparalleled performance while conserving energy and helping you save money.

Reach for the STAR

The ENERGY STAR program was created in 1992 by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy to help consumers make energy-smart decisions about their appliances and electronics. Since then, the ENERGY STAR program has become the best way to choose products that are energy-efficient and provide great cost savings over time. In fact, last year alone, ENERGY STAR appliances helped Americans save nearly $17 billion on their utility bills, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to removing 30 million cars from the road. It's a win-win situation for you and the environment.

Samsung's Energy-Saving Commitment

More than 600 Samsung products carry the ENERGY STAR label, and 100% of all Samsung flat-screen TVs, LCD monitors, laptops, washing machines, printers and multi-function devices meet or exceed their respective ENERGY STAR requirements. Samsung has also received numerous awards for eco-smart design and energy-saving innovation. Here are just a few highlights:

• The latest Samsung Plasma TVs feature new circuitry and panel techniques that meet the newest ENERGY STAR v3.0 requirements.
• Samsung's Reclaim™ Cell Phone is powered by an ENERGY STAR-certified charger.
• Samsung LED TVs offer a power indicator menu and an optimized energy-saving mode. Our LED TV consumes 60 percent less energy than conventional LCD sets, and Samsung’s 55-inch 2-sided Edge-lit 3D LED panel TV was honored with an Eco-Design Award at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show's Innovations Design and Engineering Awards.
• Samsung's WF520 Front-Loader Washing Machine was named an Eco-Design honoree at the 2011 CES Innovations Design and Engineering Awards for its energy efficiency and high-capacity performance.
• Our LED Monitors not only offer brilliant clarity and performance, but also use up to 30 to 50 percent less power than conventional monitors. It's no surprise that they've received ENERGY STAR qualification, TCO 5.0 certification, and the coveted Gold rating from EPEAT, the most comprehensive global registry of green electronics.

We're Just Getting Started

When it comes to conserving energy, Samsung is just getting started. We're already on board with the new, more stringent ENERGY STAR requirements, and we're ready to implement upcoming ENERGY STAR standards for refrigerators, dishwashers, clothing dryers and cooking appliances. From the kitchen to the family room to the office, Samsung will continue to be the leader in offering cutting-edge performance and energy-saving innovations.
