EnergySavers.Gov State-by-State

The type of rebate program differs from state to stay, and the Department of Energy - DOE - is sending out the funding to each individual states to allot it as the state sees fit. The District of Columbia, and all five national US territories are also being funded as well. The money each state receives is directly proportionate to the state's residential population, and no state will receive less than $100,000.

Each state had to approach the DOE before funding was extended from the EnergySavers.Gov program. State plans to participate in the program were due in October of 2009.

Once a state submitted documentation, it established its own EnergySavers.Gov rebate project start date. Your state's proposed start date was shown on the DOE website - pending governmental approval. In addition, the appliances that will be accepted for rebates will be listed on the website as well. At this point in time, all 56 state and territory plans have been accepted by the government EnergySavers.Gov program, and this exciting nationwide rebate system is beginning.

Though your state might be approved for the EnergySavers.Gov program, just like another state, your state had the freedom to design its own rebate program, so it could be completely different that the one created in another state.

It is important to get all of your new program details on the government EnergySavers.Gov website, rather than trusting secondary information sources. Right now, the most correct information on this brand new program is listed on EnergySavers.Gov.
