In the past, the hard part has been finding these programs, as there wasn't a consolidated area with pointers to which programs were offered. North Carolina State University, together with the Interstate Renewable Energy Council and the North Carolina Solar Center, have created a huge database of incentives. This database is called "The Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency" or DSIRE.
The database is organized by state, allowing you to quickly see what programs are available in your area. The database shows energy incentives that range from incentives that discount your electric bill, to rebates on energy-efficient appliances, and even loans for items like solar panels. There's a ton of resources for every area, with over 50 programs listed for Texas, more than that for California, and something for every state.

Re: Find energy rebates and electric bill discounts
I think if people switched all their appliances to energy star and lighting to CFL's at the same time and saw the actual savings it'd be more incentive for others to do the same. We were looking for frigidaire parts to fix an AC and decided to replace them with newer models.
I've check the database and it's quite cool, very accessible and very easy to navigate like looking for the designated are and it's available program. Thanks for sharing this very informative post and I am pretty sure that all consumers would love to check program available in their area. - buy you tube views
