<bot>: Searching for information on energy efficient appliances...According to the United States Department of Energy, Energy Star-rated appliances use less energy and save money by reducing energy costs. Look for the Energy Star label when shopping for refrigerators, dishwashers, clothes washers, air conditioners, and other appliances. You can also look online or in-store for Energy Star-rated appliances and accessories. Additionally, consider using alternative energy sources such as solar power and wind turbines to cut down on energy costs.
