The ENERGY STAR identity is a valuable asset which must be properly used and protected. Partners should take care in using the ENERGY STAR marks in all communication and outreach materials. Below are general guidelines:

• The ENERGY STAR name should always appear in capital letters. There should not be a hyphen between ENERGY and STAR.
• The registered symbol ® must be used the first time "ENERGY STAR" appears on a document or website.
• When writing about ENERGY STAR, it is correct to state that a product is "ENERGY STAR certified," "ENERGY STAR qualified," or that the "product has earned the ENERGY STAR."
• The color for the mark is ENERGY STAR blue (100% cyan).

There are specific ENERGY STAR marks for partners' various needs:

ENERGY STAR MARK	SPECIFICATION
Certification Mark	Use this mark as a label on products, homes and buildings that have earned the ENERGY STAR
Partner Mark	Use this mark to promote a partner's commitment and partnership in the ENERGY STAR program. It may only be used by ENERGY STAR partners who have signed a Partnership Agreement
