The Superior Energy Performance program for industry is expected to launch in 2013.
Facilities earned Superior Energy Performance certification after meeting the program's requirements. The SEP Certified Partners awarded in 2010 and 2011 were participants in an initial pilot project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Texas State Energy Conservation Office. U.S. facilities that earned certification in 2012 participated in subsequent rounds of DOE SEP pilot demonstrations. The SEP Certification of 3M Canada was supported by Natural Resources Canada as part of its participation in the Global Superior Energy Performance initiative.
