Heat pump rebates by province: the 2026 ranking
Newfoundland and Labrador ranks first, with a best-case combined maximum of $32,000 (up to $22,000 provincially plus up to $10,000 from the new federal National Heat Pump Rebate). Alberta, Saskatchewan, PEI and the Northwest Territories have no current provincial air-source heat pump rebate, so the federal amount is all that's on offer there. Data verified October 12, 2026.

Methodology
- Federal: National Heat Pump Rebate as announced Oct 8, 2026: up to $10,000 for households below the median income, $2,000 for others. The program is not open yet (CBC: early 2027); stacking with provincial programs is per the Prime Minister's announcement.
- Provincial: the highest verified air-source heat pump amount from official program pages (see programs.json). These maximums usually require specific income levels, heating fuel (often oil), whole-home systems or pre-approval.
- Nova Scotia's figure is a program cap across all upgrades combined. Yukon's figure uses the May 2026 terms ($10,500); yukon.ca still shows $8,000. Ontario's $7,500 applies to non-gas homes ($2,000 for Enbridge gas homes); intake status should be checked.
- Free-installation programs (e.g., NS HomeWarming, NB Enhanced Energy Savings, Ontario Energy Affordability) have no dollar cap to rank and are noted on province pages.
- Details pending: Nunavut (no verified program; federal eligibility for off-grid areas unpublished). Federal median-income thresholds are also unpublished.
- Municipal financing (loans) is excluded; it's not a rebate.
