Programs available in British Columbia

CleanBC Better Homes

The provincial program offers heat-pump rebates of up to about $4,000 for homes replacing electric heating, with much larger amounts for income-qualified households. Homes in Northern BC switching from gas, oil, or propane qualify for enhanced fuel-switching amounts. It is the backbone of the strong BC rebate stack.

BC Hydro and FortisBC utility rebates

The utilities add their own heat-pump rebates on top of the provincial amount, and these are designed to combine. Your installer confirms which apply to your address and utility.

Federal programs

The federal Greener Homes Loan closed to new applicants Oct 2025. For oil-heated homes, the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program remains open. The income-qualified Greener Homes Affordability Program delivers no-cost retrofits through provincial partners for eligible households.

Federal programs and related incentives

Solar incentives often complement heat-pump programs in British Columbia. Note: the federal Greener Homes Loan closed to new applicants in Oct 2025. The Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program remains open for oil-heated homes, and the income-qualified Greener Homes Affordability Program is available through provincial partners. For details see the heat pump rebate hub.

British Columbia heat pump rebate FAQ

How much is the BC heat pump rebate?
BC rebates through CleanBC plus the utilities have been among the most generous in Canada, with enhanced amounts for income-qualified households. The exact figure depends on your current heating, your utility, and current program rules, which your installer confirms.
Do BC heat pump rebates stack with other programs?
Yes. The CleanBC rebate and the BC Hydro or FortisBC utility rebate are generally designed to combine on the same heat pump. The federal Greener Homes Loan closed Oct 2025, but oil-heated homes can still access the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program.

Pair it with solar

Power your heat pump with your own solar

A heat pump runs on electricity, so the cheapest way to run one is to make that electricity yourself. Pair a heat pump with home solar and a battery and you cut the running cost, keep heating and cooling through an outage, and lock in your energy bill for years. Homeowners electrifying their heating are the strongest fit for solar plus storage.

  • Run your heating and cooling on power from your own roof
  • Battery backup keeps the heat pump running during outages
  • Lock in your energy cost instead of riding rising utility rates
