Because it is better to choose the right class
One of the most strategic decisions will be that of the model to buy. European energy labelsupdated for a few years with the new scale from to G, provide a clear indication of consumption And they can guide the choice towards a truly efficient product. And, the difference between a modern appliance and one passed, It really has a real and measurable impact on annual energy expenditure.
A clear savings in the bill
Let’s take, for example, a combined medium -sized refrigerator: a class A model can consume about 100 kWh per year, while an equivalent in class C can exceed 150 kWh, with an increase in consumption above 50%. If you consider, then, that Many refrigerators remain in operation for over a decade, Savings translates into hundreds of euros on the bill. The same goes for dishwasher, washing machines or ovens: choosing well at the time of purchase means cutting costs in the long run, without giving up high performance. In essence, Choosing a high energy class can halve consumption Compared to an old or inefficient device.
How much savings are really worth
The Appliance bonus will not cover the entire cost of the appliancebut it can make the difference especially for those with lower income. With 200 euros discount, a family can buy a medium-high-end appliance at a decidedly more affordable price, in a short time recovering the investment thanks to lighter bills. In addition, the conscious replacement of the most dated appliances, it can also lead to an overall reduction in emissions It is a positive impact on the home electricity grid, often overloaded by excessive consumption in summer and winter.
Appliance bonuses, a measure that has been expected for some time
The 2025 appliance bonus is part of a wider strategy of energy transition and domestic renewal, Next to other measures such as Ecobonus and the Renovation bonuses. The novelty is that this incentive is not linked to construction works, but can also be activated independently, as long as they respect the criteria of scrapping and European production. It is clear that, with 50 million euros allocated, The measure will have limited resources, therefore the membership is likely to be managed with the formula “As long as funds are exhausted”. For this, it will be essential to move in time as soon as the platform is operational.
