New York

The Empire State's biggest rebate stack.

New York runs the deepest residential incentive stack in the country. NYSERDA Clean Heat covers heat pump installs up to $12,000 (up to $18,000 for ground-source). EmPower+ delivers up to $24,000 for income-qualified households when combined with HEAR. The state's 25% solar tax credit (up to $5,000) survives even after federal 25D expired.

What a gas-to-heat-pump rebate stack actually looks like.

A 3-ton ducted heat pump qualifies for the NYS Clean Heat ASHP rebate at $3,000 on Con Edison territory, plus the NYSEG rebate stack and the NYSERDA Empower+ tier for income-qualified households (free to $10,000+).
