What heat pump rebates are still available in 2026?

Three tiers remain active: (1) State and utility rebates — many states and utilities run programs entirely independent of federal tax law. Massachusetts (up to $8,500), Colorado (up to $9,000 via Xcel Energy), Rhode Island, Vermont, and others are fully funded and open in 2026. (2) HEEHRA — up to $8,000 for households under 80% of area median income, administered by individual states; availability varies, as several states have moved to a waitlist. (3) §25D geothermal — a 30% federal tax credit on the full installed cost of a geothermal heat pump system, available through 2032.

Which state has the highest heat pump rebate in 2026?

Massachusetts currently leads for non-income-qualified households — up to $8,500 for air-source through Mass Save and up to $13,500 for geothermal. Colorado offers up to $9,000 via Xcel Energy for cold-climate air-source systems, stackable with a $1,000 state tax credit. Rhode Island, Vermont, and Connecticut also have strong utility-funded programs. The grid below is sorted by maximum stackable total.

Can I stack a utility rebate with my state's rebate?

Usually yes, but the rules vary by state and program. Most utility rebates stack freely with state energy office rebates and the §25D geothermal credit. HEEHRA income-qualified rebates (HOMES + HEEHR) are often mutually exclusive with each other but still stack with utility and state programs. Each state page on this site shows program-level stacking rules and the verified maximum stackable total.

Is HEEHRA the same as the IRA heat pump rebate?

HEEHRA (High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebate Act) is the income-qualified rebate program created by the Inflation Reduction Act. It provides up to $8,000 toward a heat pump for households under 80% AMI, with partial rebates (50% of costs) for 80–150% AMI households. Unlike the expired §25C tax credit, HEEHRA is a point-of-sale rebate applied at the time of purchase. It is state-administered, so availability varies: some states are open, others are waitlisted, and a few (including California) have exhausted initial funds.

How do I find my state's heat pump rebate amount?

Select your state from the grid below. Each state page shows every currently-open rebate program with verified amounts, source links, income requirements, and the maximum stackable total for your install type (ducted, ductless, or geothermal). Amounts are updated as programs change — each rebate entry shows the date it was last verified on the primary source.

Yes. The §25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit — which provided up to $2,000 per year for qualifying air-source heat pumps — expired December 31, 2025. Heat pump installations completed on or after January 1, 2026 are not eligible. The §25D Residential Clean Energy Credit for geothermal heat pumps was not affected and remains at 30% through 2032.
