From ceiling fans to refrigerators, the Department of Energy is updating appliance efficiency standards that would affect millions of consumers.
The Biden administration’s goal is to reduce climate-warming greenhouse gasses and save Americans billions of dollars a year in utility costs. But the administration is facing pushback from the natural gas industry, because some new standards would affect gas appliances. Conservative politicians and media have taken notice of the measures, too, and they’ve now made unsexy, technical appliance standards a flashpoint in the country’s culture war.
I hope you’re right, and it would happen a lot faster if we were able to test drive the stoves first. Then I wouldn’t end up giving my money to people who can’t make a decent stove.
The neat thing about Kbin is I don’t see the downvotes. I’m at +2 and that’s enough for me.
lol
i hope i am too. i am not sure why would an induction plate would cost you 2k (€ ?) where i live a 4 cooker induction plate is about 233€, and single cooker ones are 70€, and they are always out of stock…i dont know maybe its due to the gas stove lobby! nonetheless, voicing one’s cocncern to manufacturers would help improve said product.
