How much is the Maryland heat pump rebate?

BGE Home Performance with ENERGY STAR: when combining heat pump, insulation, and air sealing, average customer rebates run ~$3,000 and totals can reach up to $15,000. BGE air source heat pump rebate dollar amounts are set by contractor quote — efficiency minimum requirements confirmed: SEER2 ≥15.2 and HSPF2 ≥6.7–7.5 for ASHP, SEER2 ≥15.5–18 and HSPF2 ≥7.5 for ductless heat pumps. BGE Building Decarbonization (switching from gas/oil to heat pump): additional incentives available. Pepco, Delmarva Power, and Potomac Edison heat pump rebate amounts not publicly confirmed as of May 2026.

BGE covers central Maryland (Baltimore metro, Anne Arundel, Howard, Harford, Carroll counties) — approximately 50% of Maryland electricity customers.

BGE heat pump rebate dollar amounts are set through BGE Participating Contractors — confirmed efficiency minimums are SEER2 ≥15.2 / HSPF2 ≥6.7 for ASHP.

The $15,000 figure is the maximum across combined improvements (heat pump + insulation + air sealing), not a standalone heat pump rebate.

Pepco (Montgomery/PG counties) and Delmarva Power (Eastern Shore) amounts not confirmed — check with your utility directly.

Key factors that determine your Maryland rebate

Your electric utility
Which utility serves your home (BGE (Baltimore Gas and Electric), Pepco, Delmarva Power, etc.) determines which rebate tier applies.
Current heating fuel
Oil and propane homes typically qualify for the highest tiers. Natural gas homes usually qualify for lower amounts.
Whole-home vs. partial scope
A whole-home heat pump installation that replaces all primary heating earns the highest rebate. Supplemental or mini-split-only installs earn less.
System size in tons
Larger systems generally earn higher rebates, up to the program cap. Oversizing can disqualify equipment in some programs.
Equipment certification
Equipment must meet the program's current efficiency threshold. Verify the AHRI reference number or program-specific certification before purchase.
Income qualification
Income-qualified households may receive enhanced rebates or additional assistance. Ask your utility about documentation requirements.
