Electric Utilities said it has received the 2024 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year

PPL Electric Utilities said it has received the 2024 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year — Sustained Excellence Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. PPL Electric is being recognized as a Partner of the Year for a fourth straight year.

The Partner of the Year Award is the highest level of recognition from the Environmental Protection Agency. Each year, the program honors a select group of businesses and organizations that have made outstanding contributions to energy efficiency and the transition to a clean energy economy. To earn the distinction of Sustained Excellence, a company must have already won consecutive annual awards.

PPL Electric offers customers several ways to purchase energy-efficient appliances and equipment, including offering discounts on ENERGY STAR appliances. In 2023, PPL Electric’s energy efficiency programs generated $7.3 million in customer incentives. Through these incentives, customers saved 50.5 million kWh of energy, or the equivalent of removing over 4,600 homes from the grid.

Winners are selected from a network of thousands of ENERGY STAR partners. For a complete list of 2024 winners and more information about ENERGY STAR’s awards program, visit energystar.gov/awardwinners.
