Starting this month, Xcel Energy residential electric customers in Minnesota with old, inefficient secondary refrigerators can receive $70 to participate in the existing Refrigerator Recycling Program – an increase of $35 from the usual incentive. The new offer runs through Nov. 30, 2011.
The program, administered by Minnesota-based Appliance Recycling Centers of America, Inc. (ARCA), enables customers to have their spare, working refrigerators picked up free of charge and properly recycled. The recycling incentive is automatically mailed within three to four weeks after pickup. Customers that participate in the program can see up to $100 in savings on their annual energy bills making the program both convenient and rewarding.
"We are extremely pleased to double the incentive for the program this fall," said Christmas Ramirez, Xcel Energy program manager. "We want to make it easy for our customers to help the environment and save money, and we hope the added incentive will be beneficial."
