Best Buy Fiscal Year 2022 ESG Report | 18 Best Buy is helping to make a positive impact on the planet by offering eco-friendly products that conserve resources. ENERGY STAR®. ENERGY STAR certified products save money, reduce energy and water use, and protect the environment by meeting strict energy-efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Energy. We set a goal to reduce carbon emissions from ENERGY STAR products sold to our customers 20% by 2030 (over 2017 baseline), saving our customers $5 billion in energy costs. This is the Scope 3 component of our science-based carbon goal. At a time when the climate crisis seems too big to solve, we recognize that our customers are making an impact every time they select an ENERGY STAR certified product. In 2021, our U.S. customers made the decision to buy an ENERGY STAR product more than 19 million times. Over the lifetime of the products, those customers will realize more than $796 million in utility savings and the products will provide 9.8 billion pounds of CO 2 emissions avoidance. According to the EPA, the ENERGY STAR mark is recognized by 90% of American households. More than 840 utilities, state and local governments, and nonprofits leverage ENERGY STAR in their efficiency programs, reaching roughly 97% of households in all 50 states. Sustainable products .
