Energy efficiency gets more efficient for Digital Trends readers

Energy efficiency software company Enervee and Oregon-based DigitalTrends.com have partnered to bring energy efficiency information and utility energy rebates to readers of the online tech-review and news publication via the Enervee Charge widget.

Readers browsing a product review on Digital Trends are now able to see available energy efficiency rebates provided by their utility — without leaving the article — with the Enervee Charge widget. The Charge widget renders the rebate information directly on the article page, and for many readers, even allows them to claim the rebate without ever leaving the Digital Trends website.

Utilities offer these rebates–which can be worth as much as hundreds of dollars — to encourage consumers to choose more energy efficient products and drive energy savings, but many consumers are unaware of the opportunity.

“By offering these efficiency rebates to its readers, Digital Trends is doing something amazing,” says Luis Castro of Enervee. “With more than 24 million monthly visitors, Digital Trends could help drive thousands of kilowatt hours of energy savings, in addition to helping its readers save money.”

The Enervee Charge widget is already in use by online retailers such as Appliance Connection and Goedeker’s, and now DigitalTrends.com becomes the first publication to provide the service, further extending Enervee’s unique data and insights on energy efficiency to drive more energy efficient purchases.

“We are excited to be working with Enervee. Adding this widget to our reviews furthers our mission to give people real information about the products they use and the impact they have on their lives. ‘Tech for the way we live is our mission’ and this partnership is a perfect example of how we are able to bring it to life,” said Jeremy Kaplan, Editor in Chief.

According to a new report, Intel might be about to introduce a substantial pricing increase on the majority of its catalog. Unfortunately, this also includes consumer-level processors. The company cites an increase in production and material cost as the reason why it decided to up its prices.

For the customers, it all comes down to one thing -- PC hardware and pre-built desktops and laptops might get a lot more expensive. The two key questions are: How much worse will the prices get, and how will Intel's competitors respond to this decision?

CES lives!

Many of them just arrived via livestreams, instead of bombastic live events that rip a page from Cirque Du Soleil.
