Biden DOE’s Finalized Regs On A Must-Have Appliance Will Jack Up Prices, Rates
by Nick Pope 20 hours ago
The Department of Energy (DOE) finalized regulations Tuesday for a popular appliance that will push the market toward adopting heat pump technology. [emphasis, links added]
The DOE’s final energy efficiency regulations for water heaters will apply to common electrical water heaters and significantly increase the share of those models that use heat pumps, according to the agency.
The DOE has spearheaded the Biden administration’s efforts to push rules and regulations targeting appliances ranging from pool pump motors and lightbulbs to furnaces and portable generators.
“Almost every U.S. household has a water heater, and for too long outdated energy efficiency standards have led to higher utility bills for families,” Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm said in a statement about the new rules.

As Dan Akroyd of SNL use to say, Jennifer, you ignorant slut.
LMAO:
Jennifer Granholm is the most unqualified secretary of energy that this country has ever had.
I don’t know if she’s dumb, or simply she’s been handed a job that she has no qualifications for doing. It would be like employing me to work on advanced satellite systems

There's a commonality amongst those in the current administration; dumb and not qualified to do the job.
