The next time you purchase new appliance, please get an energy star rated one! Most dishwashers are energy star rated. Mid level and up refrigeraters, high end topload washers, all frontload washers, many frostfree freezers are energy star. It is so simple to do!
Quote from energystart website:
Did you know that the average home spends about $1,900 on energy costs every year? Change to appliances that have earned the ENERGY STAR, and you can save $80 a year in energy costs, while saving the environment.
