TECH Clean California has officially relaunched its heat pump incentives! The award-winning program is now in its second year and has been allocated $50 million dollars in funding for 2023.
Keep reading to learn more about the TECH Clean California incentive program and how it can help you save up to $2,000 on heat pump installation.
What Is TECH Clean California?
TECH Clean California is a state-wide initiative designed to accelerate the adoption of clean space and water heating technologies—aka heat pumps and heat pump water heaters—in California homes. The program makes heat pump installation easier for both homeowners and contractors in an effort to help California meet its goal of becoming carbon-neutral by 2045.
The TECH Clean California heat pump rebate program initially launched rebates in 2021 and funds were mostly exhausted by May of 2022. Due to the rebate program’s success, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) allocated additional funding, allowing TECH to relaunch its heat pump rebates.

TECH Clean California heat pump rebates are currently available for single-family homes. Households can claim a $1,000 rebate per system for new heat pump HVAC systems, with up to two incentivized systems per home for a total of $2,000 when replacing a gas appliance.
