PALTO ALTO, Calif., April 26, 2018 /3BL Media/ -- HP is proud to receive the 2018 ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year Award for Product Brand Owner, for our environmental leadership in IT equipment.

EPA recognized HP’s continued commitment to designing and manufacturing high-efficiency products, calling out the company’s ever-expanding array of ENERGY STAR certified products—totaling nearly 800 products in 2017.
