Rebates for Energy Star appliances

Apply for a rebate from your power company when you buy energy efficient appliances : Several new laws just took effect to help Marylanders reduce pollution and save money on their bills by using less energy. For example, power companies now must upgrade their plants to lower costs by more efficiently producing the energy they sell. They also have to offer their customers incentives and rebates to use less energy by encouraging customers to buy ENERGY STAR appliances, CFL lightbulbs, and new furnaces. Check with your local energy company to find out more.
