The good news is that the rebates many people enjoyed in late 2009 for buying new Energy Star appliances are carrying over to 2010. In fact some of the Northwest regional utilities have expanded their programs.

The bad news is many of the major manufacturer incentives expired at the end of 2009. However, a few remain and have been extended.

We’ve updated our Southwest Washington Energy Tax Rebates and Incentives and Oregon Energy Tax Rebates and Incentives pages to include 2010 changes.
