St. Andrew’s earns EPA’s ENERGY STAR Certification



For the seventh time in eight years, St. Andrew’s has earned the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) ENERGY STAR certification, which  signifies that the building performs in the top 25 percent of similar facilities nationwide for energy efficiency and meets strict energy efficiency performance levels set by the EPA.

St. Andrew’s ENERGY STAR certification demonstrates our commitment to environmental stewardship while also lowering our energy costs, freeing funds for mission and community service.

Commercial buildings that earn ENERGY STAR certification use an average of 35 percent less energy than typical buildings and also release 35 percent less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

St. Andrew’s extends our very grateful thanks to parishioner Bob Lord who spearheads this important effort.
