Biden administration adopts stricter energy efficiency standards for residential appliances.
The Biden administration has adopted stricter energy efficiency standards for residential water heaters, as part of changes designed to reduce energy consumption in common appliances, including stoves, dishwashers, and lightbulbs.
The Department of Energy's new standards are expected to save American households and businesses almost $1 trillion over 30 years, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by the equivalent of removing 18 million gas-burning vehicles from the road.
However, the changes have faced criticism from Republican lawmakers, who argue that appliances could become more expensive in the short term.
