Metro Lighting’s accomplishments will be recognized in Washington, D.C. on April 20.

Metro Lighting, an Energy Star partner since 2008, is being honored for its work in communicating and promoting the important, positive effects that energy efficiency actions, such as using Energy Star products or buying an Energy Star home, have on the environment.

“These awards confirm our commitment to raising the public’s awareness of the positive environmental impacts of Energy Star,” Special Projects Manager Nick Frisella said.

“Through various efforts like advertising and community outreach, we are teaching our customers about the necessity of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and providing simple ways our customers can help fight climate change,” he said.

“Metro Lighting is helping Americans save money, save energy, and do their part to reduce our nation’s greenhouse gas emissions that fuel climate change,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “Metro Lighting demonstrates a strong commitment to energy efficiency and to preserving a healthy planet for future generations.”
