This week, Andrea showcased the new Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) incentive search widget, which people can use to quickly find rebates and other incentives for purchasing renewable energy or energy-efficient items for their homes and businesses. Eric continued the theme by highlighting the different ways to Save Money on Your Energy-Saving Upgrades.
Our Rebates, Tax Credits, & Financing section of Energysavers.gov has great information on current incentives that you can still take advantage of such as tax credits, appliance rebates, and energy efficiency mortgages and financing.
How about you? Have you been able to take advantage of any incentives to improve the efficiency of your home? If you didn't realize that these are still available, are you still interested?
Each week, you have the chance to share your thoughts on a question about energy efficiency or renewable energy for consumers. E-mail your responses to the Energy Saver team at consumer.webmaster@nrel.gov.
