Heat pump incentives in California

No statewide rebate program

verified 2026-07

Incentives run through your utility

No live statewide heat-pump program accepting new single-family reservations: TECH Clean California single-family heat-pump HVAC reservations are fully reserved / closed to new applicants since 11/14/2025. The federal HEEHRA stack is dead. Live money is utility and muni specific. Confirm any current utility-specific offer. Check BayREN Home+ and Golden State Rebates (distributor midstream) in applicable territories.

Utilities in California with nothing to claim

We check these and they pay nothing toward a heat pump today. They are listed rather than dropped, because if you are here looking for one of these names then this is your answer, and an empty page would read as an oversight instead of a result.

PG&E

Program ended

Per the engine's own record for this utility: its heat pump rebate ran via TECH Clean California, which has been fully reserved and closed to new single-family reservations since 14 November 2025. There is nothing here to reserve today. California's live money is the municipal and CCA programs listed below.

Golden State Rebates (statewide midstream)

Program ended

The statewide Golden State Rebates midstream coupon program ended on 31 July 2026, with its last reservation on 23 July. It also never covered space-heating heat pumps: it discounted heat pump water heaters, high-efficiency AC and smart thermostats at the distributor. Nothing here to claim on a heat pump, then or now.

What your system should be sized for

A heat pump in California should carry the house on the coldest design day, not the average one. These are the winter design temperatures our engine sizes against, in AHRI heating region III (1,400 heating degree days at the Los Angeles reference metro).

City	Design temp	Climate zone	Basis
Los Angeles	43°F	3B	estimated
San Francisco	38°F	3C	estimated
Sacramento	31°F	3B	estimated
San Diego	44°F	3A	estimated
Fresno	31°F	3B	estimated
Redding	30°F	3B	estimated

Rebate amounts are estimates and subject to change. Verify current program terms and eligibility before quoting a final net price.
Eligibility varies by income, equipment efficiency, utility territory, and program funding availability.
State and utility programs only. Federal 25C/25D tax credits expired 12/31/2025 and the DOE HEAR/HOMES rebate programs ended 5/29/2026; neither is included.
After-install rebates are claimed by the homeowner after installation and are not guaranteed at the point of sale.
