GE ENERGY STAR® Qualified Refrigerators
- GE refrigerators that have earned the ENERGY STAR are 20% more energy efficient than refrigerators that do not qualify for the ENERGY STAR, and 40% more energy efficient than conventional refrigerators sold in 2001.
- All ENERGY STAR qualified GE refrigerators sold in 2007 were designed to avoid the emissions of more than 944,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide over the course of their lifetimes compared to an equal number of conventional refrigerators.
- A single ENERGY STAR qualified GE refrigerator is designed to avoid the emissions of more than 2200 lbs of carbon dioxide over the course of its lifetime compared to a conventional refrigerator over the same 13-year period; this is equivalent to the carbon dioxide absorbed in one year by 1/4 acre of trees in a southeastern US forest.
- In some areas, the purchase of an ENERGY STAR qualified refrigerator may make consumers eligible for utility rebates. Check with your local utility company to see if you're eligible.
