Energy efficiency program provides new rebates
for small appliances
The Dayton Power and Light Company (DP&L), a subsidiary of
The AES Corporation (NYSE: AES), is offering rebates to customers
for recycling inefficient appliances. Replacing older appliances
saves on energy costs and helps protect the environment.
DP&L will rebate customers $50 for each working refrigerator
or freezer and $20 on room air conditioners and dehumidifiers. The
room air conditioners and dehumidifiers will be collected only
during pick-ups of refrigerators and freezers at the same location.
Refrigerators and freezers must be 10-30 cubic feet. Residential
and business customers may recycle appliances. All units collected
must be standard-sized – not commercial – appliances.
Household appliances account for nearly 13% of the average
electrical bill, installing new higher efficiency appliances
provides an opportunity for real savings on energy costs.
“DP&L recognizes how much our customers value the
convenience of our appliance recycling program and the benefit it
provides to the environment,” said DP&L President and CEO Tom
Raga. “We are pleased to offer the program and to expand it to
include smaller appliances.”
The rebate for recycling appliances is part of DP&L’s
ongoing energy efficiency efforts for customers, which also include
rebates on new heat pumps and air conditioners, discounts on
energy-efficient lighting, and rebates for business customers.
Customers may make an appointment to have old appliances picked
up – at no charge – call 877-889-4765 or visit
www.dpandl.com/recycle.
DP&L is partnering with a new vendor ARCA Inc., an
international company with 40 years of innovation and experience in
energy efficiency and responsible appliance disposal, providing
customers with an easy and responsible method to recycle old,
inefficient refrigerators and freezers, as well as select small
appliances. ARCA’s recycling centers salvage materials in
refrigerators and freezers with the goal of protecting natural
resources from the environmentally-damaging substances found in
older appliances.
