Denver no longer offers rebates for residential heat pumps, solar, batteries, or electric service upgrades. EV charging rebates are still available. The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) was awarded a nearly $200 million federal grant to offer financial incentives for heat pumps. DRCOG’s heat pump incentives are planned to launch in early 2026. Please fill out and submit this interest form if you are interested in participating in and being contacted regarding DRCOG’s heat pump incentives program.
