Editor’s note: that short post from our friends at Low Impact Living points you to a (literal) gold mine of knowledge on incentives for greening your home. Check it out: that energy-efficient upgrade to your home may be even less expensive than you imagined. that post was originally published on Monday, May 19th, 2008.

We want to let you know about an excellent new resource available to you– GreenMadeSimple.com. that site has created a very comprehensive database of green rebates, tax incentives and free offers across the US.

Their zip-code guided search allows you to find incentives and deals related to energy-efficient appliances and lighting, solar ability, hybrid and alt-fuel

vehicles, and more. The database includes federal, state and local incentives. Just put in your zip cipher and prepare to go green and save money.

Here are some examples of the jewels you’ll find:

• The Los Angeles area of Water and capability will give you $250 (!) back on the purchase of an Energy Star clothes washer.
• The State of Illinois will give buyers of hybrid cars a $1000 rebate.
• Austin Energy in Texas will give customers up to 20% of the cost of assured improvements (insulation, weatherization, appliance swaps) up to $1575. And they offer bonus incentives up to $650 for making multiple improvements.
