Energy Solutions
The Clean Heat program is an initiative to encourage the adoption of energy-efficient, all-electric heating and cooling solutions like heat pumps. This program is part of New York’s broader effort to reduce carbon emissions and transition to more sustainable energy sources. It offers incentives and rebates to homeowners who install qualifying heat pumps and other clean heating and cooling technologies. This does not require a full switch to electric heating and cooling. This can also benefit you to use a dual-fuel solution where you can still have the reliability of your known fuel source, but also transition to benefiting from clean and efficient energy!
Value to Homeowners
Homeowners can take advantage of significant rebates and incentives, reducing the upfront cost of installing heat pumps. Over time, they can also save on energy bills due to the efficiency of heat pumps compared to traditional heating systems. Additional tax incentives are available to further enhance the financial benefits of installing heat pumps in your home.
Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling, making them a versatile, year-round solution. They are more energy-efficient than conventional systems, leading to lower energy consumption and more consistent indoor temperatures.
By switching to cleaner energy sources, homeowners contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, supporting New York’s climate goals, and promoting a healthier environment.
As New York State moves towards higher energy efficiency standards, homeowners who upgrade now are ahead of the curve, potentially increasing their home’s value and appeal.

As New York State moves towards higher energy efficiency standards, homeowners who upgrade now are ahead of the curve, potentially increasing their home’s value and appeal.
NYSERDA’s Residential Energy Assessment Programs offer free or low-cost energy assessments to homeowners. These assessments identify opportunities to improve energy efficiency in the home, such as insulation upgrades, air sealing, and HVAC system enhancements.
Value to Homeowners
Homeowners receive a detailed report showing where their home is losing energy and how to improve it. This helps in making informed decisions about home improvements.
By addressing the inefficiencies identified in the assessment, homeowners can improve indoor comfort while reducing heating and cooling costs.
After the assessment, homeowners may qualify for additional incentives or financing options to make the recommended improvements more affordable.
Energy-efficient homes are more attractive to buyers, potentially increasing the resale value of the property.
