Moreover, this trend appears to have accelerated under the Biden Administration.&nbsp; AHRI\u2019s discussion of the IRA and DPA is non-committal advocacy (an oxymoron?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The likely reason is that AHRI has members on both sides of these issues.&nbsp; As my good friend Ed Reid commented on today (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.therightinsight.org\/Thanksgiving-2023\">Nov 21, 2023<\/a>), there are many reasons to be thankful this holiday season.&nbsp; Unfortunately, the war of attrition against consumer choice for non-electric appliance may not be one of them. On the other hand, at least Biden hasn\u2019t (yet) invoked the DPA in total in what his Administration continues to equate to the most existential threat to humanity of all; anthropogenic global warming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>And in other related news:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A consortium of the AGA, the Natural Propane Gas Association (NPGA) and the American Public Gas Association (APGA) has just issued what could be \u201ca shot across the [DOE\u2019s] bow\u201d in the form of what they titled a \u201cPETITIONERS\u2019 NON-BINDING STATEMENT OF ISSUES TO BE RAISED.\u201d (Click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.masterresource.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/2023.11.15-Non-Binding-Statement-Of-Issues-Doc.-2027248.pdf\">here<\/a>&nbsp;for the for a PDF of an official copy.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Footnote 1 to their \u201cpetition\u201d indicates that it is aimed at a recently ended Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) titled \u201cEnergy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Commercial Water Heating Equipment.\u201d However, there is no reason apparent (to me at least) why this petition could not equally apply to other recent DOE NOPR\u2019s.&nbsp; For example. DOE\u2019s recently ended NOPR for&nbsp; \u201cConsumer Boilers\u201d which I published an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.masterresource.org\/krebs-mark\/review-proposed-efficiency-consumer-boilers\/\">update on MasterResource dated October 24, 2023<\/a>.
