American Bakers Association Member facilities represent 40 of the 86 manufacturing plants recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ENERGY STAR certification for their superior energy performance in 2022. Every baking facility awarded ENERGY STAR certification is a Member of the American Bakers Association. Only plants in the top 25 percent of energy performance nationwide can earn the ENERGY STAR.
“The baking sector’s strong participation in the ENERGY STAR program exemplifies their commitment to their communities and their sustainability goals,” said Rasma Zvaners, ABA's Vice President of Regulatory and Technical Services. “In 2022, ABA Members’ avoided 138 million metric tons of greenhouse gasses compared to bakeries performing at an average level of energy efficiency.”
“Industrial leadership in energy efficiency is critical to achieving our nation’s climate goals,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “The savings from ENERGY STAR certified plants demonstrate how energy efficiency is both helping our manufacturing sector reduce costs and propelling America’s transition to a clean energy future.”
