## Programs at a glance

| Program | Status | Typical amount we count | Source read |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| New Jersey Clean Energy Whole Home Energy Solutions (utility-delivered) | open | Not stated as one figure | [2026-10-27](https://homeenergysavings.atlanticcityelectric.com/) |
| PSE&G HVAC Instant Rebates and building decarbonization (heat pumps) | open | Not stated as one figure | [2026-10-27](https://myhomeenergy.pseg.com/heatingandcooling) |

_"Typical amount we count" is a single-family figure we can add up; programs that state no single figure are listed as such. Pause and waitlist status could not be confirmed from a public live source for any utility. The New York Clean Heat manual (v3, effective 2026-09-01) lists full amounts for all six NY utilities and no public notice of a pause was found; Con Edison and National Grid ration money through quarterly contractor allocations (official Clean Heat meeting summaries say contractors "should only submit applications for incentives within their allocated incentive budget"), so a homeowner can be told no money is left through a given contractor. Treat "open" as "listed and not publicly paused", and call the utility or contractor before promising a rebate._

## What each program says

- **New Jersey Clean Energy Whole Home Energy Solutions (utility-delivered)** Up to $7,500 in rebates for energy-efficient home upgrades after a home energy audit by a participating contractor; the amount depends on the upgrades done, so no typical figure is stated. Quote is from Atlantic City Electric's page; the same statewide program is offered by the other utilities. Status: open. Paid by NJ Clean Energy Program via utilities.

## Common questions

### What does PSE&G pay for a heat pump?

No program on this page states a single dollar figure; the amounts are in the table and on each program's page.

### Is the PSE&G heat pump rebate open?

As last read October 27, 2026: New Jersey Clean Energy Whole Home Energy Solutions (utility-delivered) is open; PSE&G HVAC Instant Rebates and building decarbonization (heat pumps) is open; Federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C), New Jersey is ended. Pause and waitlist status could not be confirmed from a public live source for any utility. The New York Clean Heat manual (v3, effective 2026-09-01) lists full amounts for all six NY utilities and no public notice of a pause was found; Con Edison and National Grid ration money through quarterly contractor allocations (official Clean Heat meeting summaries say contractors "should only submit applications for incentives within their allocated incentive budget"), so a homeowner can be told no money is left through a given contractor. Treat "open" as "listed and not publicly paused", and call the utility or contractor before promising a rebate.

### Does the federal heat pump tax credit still apply?

No. The federal energy efficient home improvement credit (25C) ended for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025, so we do not count it.
