The City of Santa Clarita is pleased to announce that the California Appliance Rebate program is officially underway. The program, which launched on Earth Day, April 22, 2010, offers rebates to assist California residents in swapping out old energy inefficient home appliances for new, Energy Star qualified items. “The residential sector presents a large challenge and sizable opportunity of protecting the environment through energy efficiency,” said California State Assemblyman and former Santa Clarita Mayor, Cameron Smyth. “Households are the third largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., behind only the industrial and transportation sectors, and offer potential energy savings in the range of 25 to 30 percent compared with current consumption.” Three residential appliance categories are eligible to receive rebates as part of the program: clothes washers ($100 rebate), refrigerators ($200 rebate), and room/window air conditioners ($50 rebate).
