Super Efficient Refrigerator Program: Case Study of a Golden Carrot Program

    Research output: NRELTechnical Report

    Abstract

    This case study describes the development and implementation of the Super Efficient Refrigerator Program (SERP}, which awarded $30 million to the refrigerator manufacturer that developed and commercialized a refrigerator that exceeded 1993 federal efficiency standards by at least 25%. Twenty-four public and private utilities funded the program. As the first Golden Carrot program implemented inthe United States, SERP was studied as an example for future 'market-pull' efforts.
