Yukon offering heat pump rebates and pilot project trials

The Yukon government has announced that its Good Energy rebates for heat pumps are now available.

Homeowners can receive rebates covering 40% of project costs, up to a maximum of $8,000 for a new air or ground source heat pump.

In addition to its expanded rebate, the Government of Yukon is seeking participants for a heat pump pilot project.

In partnership with electrical utilities, the project will support the installation of 25 heat pumps for both commercial and residential buildings that already have certain heating systems installed.

The pilot project seeks to understand how heat pump technology and existing heating systems interact to optimize performance for homes and the electrical grid. The Government of Yukon will cover installation costs of up to 40% up to a maximum of $10,000.
