Incentives run through your utility

No coordinated state program. Per the engine's own Midwest Electric record, Ohio's IOUs (AEP Ohio, Duke Energy Ohio, AES Ohio) dropped residential heat-pump rebates after HB 6 repealed the state efficiency mandate; co-ops such as Midwest Electric and Mid-Ohio Energy still offer them.
