Make a plan to transition your appliances to clean energy.

Choose healthier, cheaper, and safer appliances.

There is a lot of noise and pressure about so many of the decisions we make every day, but as Saul Griffith, author of Electrify: An Optimist's Playbook for Our Clean Energy Future explains, most of your climate impact comes down to just a handful of major purchasing decisions: your car, heating/cooling system, hot water heater, dryer and stove. If we all electrify those machines at replacement time, instead of buying new fossil fuel machines, we make a huge dent in our carbon emissions.

Rewiring America has put out a very helpful introductory guide to getting started with electrifying your home. Electrify Now has a great library of webinars as well. And RMI has just published a series of Factsheets tailored to individual States, including MA, MD, WA, IL, NY, ME, WI, PA, CO, TX, MI, WI, OR, NV, and OH. Learn more about Heat Pumps and many other home electrification benefits from Green Energy Consumers (and sign up for one of their great webinars).

Last but not least, there are HUGE incentives available for heat pumps and other electric appliances and energy upgrades. See the Rewiring America calculator to learn more about the IRA incentives, and MassSave for Massachusetts incentives. Yes, there are similar incentives for many other states.
