"We are proud to be selected as the Retail Partner of the Year. The award recognizes the engagement of our 155,000 associates, who are making smart choices about energy use every day. We continually stress that for a company of our size, even small improvements can add up to significant economic and environmental benefits."

"The success of JCPenney in proactively managing energy use is a model for businesses across the country," said Bill Wehrum, acting assistant administrator for EPA's Office of Air and Radiation. "Because buildings contribute about 20 percent of our national greenhouse gas emissions, effective energy management helps the bottom line and protects our environment."
