Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm announced new efficiency regulations for dishwashers, beverage vending machines, and electric motors on Friday, the latest of several actions from the Biden administration to decrease power usage and combat climate change.
An announcement contended that the restrictions would decrease expenses for American consumers due to lowered energy consumption. Granholm said the administration is “using all of the tools at our disposal to save Americans money while promoting innovations that will reduce carbon pollution and combat the climate crisis.”
Because nothing decreases expenses for consumers like increased regulations.
New dishwashers imported into the United States beginning in 2027 would have to consume 27% less power and use 34% less water, while more compact models would need to implement a 22% power reduction and an 11% water use reduction, according to an analysis of the proposal released by Bloomberg Law. Energy Department officials estimate that consumers would have to spend $15 more for a new dishwasher but would witness three times as much in energy savings over the appliance’s lifetime.
Awesome. A dishwasher cycle took less than an hour before the reduced water regulations in 2012. Now they can take as long as 3 hours with drastically reduced water flow for a normal cycle to get the dishes as clean as the old ones. Now they are reducing it by another 34%? These things will be trickling water on the dishes all day.
