Just recently we found a great website that provides information on state rebate programs that you might want to be aware of. If you know of someone who is looking to make an investment in their home by installing either energy efficient appliances, solar water heaters, solar panels. This is a great resource to find out what kinds of rebate programs are available and information on who to contact. You may want to share this article with your family or friends who might want to know what programs are out there.
Here are some examples of what I found:
Fort Lauderdale Florida: Fort Lauderdale Smart Watts Rebate Program
Sunset Valley Texas: Sunset Valley - PV Rebate Program
New York: Refundable Clean Heating Fuel Tax Credit (Personal)
Here is some general information about the website:
Established in 1995, the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) is an ongoing project of the North Carolina Solar Center and the Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC). It is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), primarily through the Office of Planning, Budget and Analysis (PBA). The site is administered by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), which is operated for DOE by the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC.
Information about the program:
Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is providing a total of $300 million to U.S. states, U.S. territories and the District of Columbia to establish rebate programs for new energy-efficient appliances that replace existing appliances in homes. Each state and territory has designed its own program. Rebates will be available until the state or territory program's funding is exhausted.
