Prince Edward Island
Are there heat pump rebates in PEI right now?
Checked against the official program pages on November 2, 2026.
PEI's provincial heat pump rebates ended on April 15, 2026, and the province's free heat pump program is closed to new applications. Purchases made between April 15, 2025 and April 15, 2026 can still be claimed within one year of purchase. The main option for new installs is the federal National Heat Pump Rebate, which opens in early 2027 and counts eligible installs from November 1, 2026.

What this means if you are planning a heat pump
For a new install on the Island, the province is not offering a heat pump rebate right now. The federal rebate counts installs from November 1, 2026, so if you qualify, an install this winter can still apply once it opens in early 2027. It is $2,000 for households above the median income, or up to $10,000 at or below it, for systems that can heat the whole home.
PEI's programs have changed several times, so check the province's heat pump page before you count on anything. We will update this page when the province announces something new.
