About the Fridge.com Intelligence Score (FIS)

The (FIS) Fridge.com Intelligence Score is a 0–100 rating of how much a location stands to gain from an efficient refrigerator or freezer. For a city or state, the higher the score, the more an efficient appliance matters there — expensive power, a harsher climate, or available utility rebates all push it up. City and state scores add four measured components:

Rate urgency

Up to 40 points from the local residential electricity rate. The more a household pays per kWh, the more an efficient refrigerator saves.

Climate urgency

Up to 30 points from the climate zone. Hot-humid, hot-dry and very-cold areas work a refrigerator hardest.

Savings impact

Up to 30 points weighing those annual dollar savings against the area’s income tier.

Rebate bonus

5 points when local utility rebates are available to offset the cost of an efficient model.
