Rewiring America is the name of a non-profit that aims to provide information to consumers and businesses about programs and incentives that can save them money. That can be with solar, EVs, heat pumps and more. Policy Analyst Amanda Sachs ..

“Because these are such new, efficient, just superior technologies in the first place, sometimes they have higher up front costs, so there needs to access state, local and federal rebates and other kinds of incentives to lower that cost. But once you do have these efficient electric appliances in your home, you can expect to see operational cost savings as well.”

First of all, if you need to stay powered at a camp site or in a home emergency, BioLite’s BaseCharge line, which is on sale now…is a great investment and is solar rechargeable. Quality and reliability matter with portable power stations. And BioLite made its name with portable stoves. That tradition continues with CampStoves and the latest EcoZoom Rocket Stoves. And of course you need something to cook at the campsite. Backpacker’s Pantry has five new freeze dried entrees for this year. The family owned company has more winners with Pesto Pasta with Chicken, a favorite here, Beef Bolognese, Drunken Noodles with Chicken, Fiesta Beef and Vegetable Bowl and White Bean, Chicken and Green Chile Stew.
