The Republican-led House Small Business Committee wrote to the Department warn the new rules could put 10-30 percent of manufacturers out of business.
The Department of Energy is proposing a rule that would require ceiling fans to be more energy efficient, arguing the move would save U.S. households on energy costs.
…In a statement to FOX Business on Friday, a DOE spokesperson defended the potential new rule changes, saying, “These proposed standards, which are required by Congress, wouldn’t take effect until 2028, would give Americans more energy efficient options to choose from, and would save hardworking taxpayers up to $369 million per year, while substantially reducing harmful air pollution — a crucial fact that some have conveniently failed to mention.
‘This rule would require numerous small business fan manufacturers to redesign their products and may put between 10 and 30 percent of small business ceiling fan manufacturers out of business,’ wrote Williams and his colleagues. Williams sent Granholm a list of five questions, asking for specifics on the proposal and seeking information on whether the department expects manufacturers to abandon their existing fans, or rework them.
