Obama's New Energy Efficiency Program: "Cash for Caulkers"
Posted by James Desmond on Tue, Mar 02, 2010 @ 02:00 PM
President Obama will be announcing a new $6 billion dollar program today called "Cash for Caulkers" that will hopefully stimulate the economy by providing incentives for Americans who make energy efficient home improvements. The new program "is intended to prompt Americans to invest in everything from insulation or new windows to overarching energy upgrades of their homes."
Created after the success of "Cash for Clunkers" last summer, this program has been developed to create more jobs and provide incentives for all who participate. This program will only be available for a short time period, however the White House is expecting that the average household could save between $200-$500 this year if they participate. "The program involves a range of incentives for consumers, including rebates from stores that sell building materials, companies that install the equipment and utility energy efficiency programs. Consumers can also get rebates for a range of home energy upgrades."
