Energy Efficient Appliance Rebate Program and Energy Star Program
$300 million was included for the Energy Efficient Appliance Rebate program and the Energy Star Program.
Office: Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE)
Agency: U.S. Department of Energy
Description: Approximately 15 states have appliance rebate programs currently operating to incentivize the purchase of energy efficient appliances. This program would add federal funds to increase the effectiveness of these programs and to encourage the remaining states to adopt similar programs. This will speed the rollout of appliances that will be able to take advantage of smart meters and spur consumer purchases of smart and energy-efficient appliances.
