There's real money on the table for going electric. Here's where it comes from.

Updated February 3, 2026 · East Bay Heat Pumps

Federal tax credits

Federal energy-efficiency tax credits can reduce the cost of qualifying heat pump HVAC systems and heat pump water heaters when you file your taxes. Eligibility depends on the equipment meeting efficiency requirements.

California statewide programs

TECH Clean California is a statewide initiative that offers rebates for qualifying heat pump space-heating and water-heating installations, delivered through participating contractors.

Regional and utility programs

In the Bay Area, BayREN offers rebates for home energy upgrades, and local utilities periodically run their own incentive programs. These regional programs can often be combined with state and federal incentives.

How the incentives stack

The reason electrification is so attractive in the East Bay is that these programs frequently stack — a single project can benefit from federal, state, and regional incentives at once. Because amounts and eligibility rules change, we confirm the current programs for your specific project and handle the paperwork.
