Top Five Energy-Saving Gifts for 2022

1. Entertainment and Home Office Essentials: Whether for rocking out to your favorite music while preparing those famous family recipes or simply relaxing with a great movie, the latest gadgets and electronics are always popular for holiday entertaining. When shopping, look for sound bars, wireless speakers, laptops, tablets, and media players that have earned the ENERGY STAR. On average, they are 45% more efficient than conventional models.
2. Smart Thermostat: Gift your favorite new homeowner or home remodeler with a gift that will keep giving all year long. An ENERGY STAR certified smart thermostat will learn a household’s heating preferences without anyone having to lift a finger. And it will save families with high energy bills up to $100 a year.
3. Air Purifiers: As the temperatures drop this holiday season, we spend more of our time indoors. ENERGY STAR certified air purifiers have the latest technology for improving indoor air quality and removing dust, allergens, and other pollutants from your home – so you and your loved ones can breathe easy. Additionally, air purifiers with the blue ENERGY STAR label are 25% more energy efficient than standard models and can save consumers more than $120 over the lifetime of the products.
4. EV Charger: Does someone in your family drive an electric vehicle? Help them maximize their convenience and savings by gifting them an ENERGY STAR certified EV charger, which is 40% more efficient than a standard charger.
5. Holiday Lighting: If decorative lighting helps you make your holidays more festive, make sure it’s energy efficient. Certified light bulbs and holiday light strings use about 75% less energy than incandescent lighting, helping you to save energy and money as you deck the halls.

ENERGY STAR® is the simple choice for energy efficiency. For more than 25 years, EPA’s ENERGY STAR program has been America’s resource for saving energy and protecting the environment. Behind each blue label is a product, building, or home that is independently certified to use less energy and cause fewer of the emissions that contribute to climate change.
