More on the switch from ENERGY STAR plaques to decals

To supplement the information contained in this earlier post, ENERGY STAR has put together some more details about the transition from plaques to building decals.

There will also be an informal webinar hosted on June 1st (see our events calendar for informaiton on that), which will be archived and available for viewing on the ENERGY STAR recorded training page after June 6th.

Additional information on the transition is summarized below:
- Applications electronically submitted before June 1, 2011, will still receive a plaque.

- EPA will provide instructions for creating a glass plaque out of the decal, or a traditional bronze ENERGY STAR plaque can be purchased from EPA’s third-party plaque manufacturer for $199 each, plus $25 for shipping (through 1/27/12, when this may change).

- Printer-ready artwork and instructions will be available for download on the ENERGY STAR website for buildings to make decals of their own, if desired.

- Each building (only those submitted after June 1, those submitted before will still receive the bronze plaque) will receive 2 identical decals. Additional decals are not available for purchase at this time.

- Both decals will either be the etched or blue/white, it is not an option to select one of each.
