The Biden administration proposes energy-efficiency standards for water heaters, aiming to save consumers $11.4 billion annually on energy and water bills. The standards require electric water heaters to use heat pump technology and gas heaters to employ condensing technology. While advocates support the standards, critics argue that the initial investment may not justify the long-term savings, particularly in colder climates.
