What changed in 2026
The federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) ended for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025. What remains are state-run federal rebates where a state has launched them, utility rebates and manufacturer promotions. In June 2026 the Department of Energy renamed the federal programs (HEAR is now the High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebate, HEEHR) and stopped paying for switching from gas, oil or propane to a heat pump: HEEHR heat pump rebates now cover replacing electric equipment, or new construction. Savings-based HOMES rebates can still help a home that heats with gas.

Federal rebates run by the state
