Arizona Energy Rebates 2026
Arizona's federal HOMES and HEAR rebates are part of the DOE Home Energy Rebates program. We could not confirm from an official government source whether they are open to the public as of July 2026, so treat the amounts on this page as the federal framework and check with the administering agency first. The utility and weatherization programs listed further down this page are available today. The 25C and 25D federal tax credits expired December 31, 2025.
Program status and income limits on this page were last checked against official state and federal sources on . These programs change without notice.

Area Median Income (AMI) in Arizona
HOMES and HEAR rebate amounts depend on your household income relative to the Area Median Income in your area. AMI varies by county and household size.
| Area | 80% AMI (Family of 4) | 150% AMI (Family of 4) |
|---|---|---|
| Maricopa County | $89,900 | $168,500 |
| Pima County | $79,850 | $149,700 |
| Yavapai County | $76,300 | $143,000 |
| Mohave County | $63,900 | $119,800 |
| Yuma County | $63,850 | $119,700 |
| Coconino County | $89,600 | $168,000 |
Eligibility is set by county and household size. The 80% figures are the HUD FY2026 income limits published for each county and are reproduced as-is. HUD does not publish a 150% limit, so that column is computed from the 80% limit; checked against Minnesota's official 2026 county table, the method lands within $200 on every county, but where your state publishes its own table, that table governs. Figures are for a 4-person household and change with household size.

Energy Rebate Calculator is an independent website. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the U.S. Department of Energy, Arizona, or any other government agency, and nothing on this page is an offer, an application, or a promise of payment.
Federal and state rebate programs launch, pause, change their amounts and run out of funds without notice, and eligibility rules differ by county, household size, housing type and sometimes by region within a state. Most programs also refuse to pay for work completed before their launch date. Figures here are published to help you understand roughly where you stand, not to be relied on as the final word.
Confirm your eligibility and the current terms directly with the administering agency, and get written confirmation, before you sign a contract or buy equipment. Where this page cites an official source, that source governs. If you spot something out of date on this page, tell us and we will correct it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What energy rebates are available in Arizona in 2026?
Arizona residents in 2026 can access HEAR rebates (up to $14,000 for heat pump HVAC, water heaters, and electric appliances) and HOMES rebates (up to $8,000 for whole-home energy improvements). APS and SRP offer additional utility-funded rebates for insulation, smart thermostats, and cooling upgrades. Given Arizona's extreme heat, cooling efficiency improvements, including heat pump HVAC systems, which are efficient in both heating and cooling, provide particularly large energy savings.
Not confirmed. We could not confirm these figures against an Arizona state source: the state housing, commerce and SRP sites all refuse automated checks. We are flagging this rather than removing it, because the programme does appear to exist. Confirm the current amounts and conditions with the Arizona Governor's Office of Resiliency before you commit to a project.
Are federal tax credits still available in Arizona?
No. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21, signed July 4, 2025) terminated both Section 25C (energy efficiency) and Section 25D (solar, battery, geothermal) federal tax credits for installations completed after December 31, 2025. This is particularly significant for Arizona given its exceptional solar potential, the 26–30% federal solar tax credit that made rooftop solar so financially attractive in prior years is no longer available for new 2026 installations. Arizona homeowners who went solar before December 31, 2025 can still claim those credits on their 2025 return.
Do APS and SRP offer rebates that stack with HEAR and HOMES?
Yes, both major Phoenix-area utilities offer rebate programs that can be combined with federal HEAR and HOMES rebates. APS Home Performance with ENERGY STAR and SRP's Home Performance Program both provide rebates for insulation, duct sealing, smart thermostats, and cooling/HVAC upgrades. These utility rebates are available regardless of income. Stacking a HEAR rebate (income-based) with an APS or SRP utility rebate can significantly reduce the cost of a heat pump or insulation project.
What are the income limits for HEAR rebates in Arizona?
HEAR rebates target Arizona households earning at or below 150% of Area Median Income (AMI). In the Phoenix-Mesa metro, 80% AMI for a 4-person household is approximately $73,120; in Tucson, it's about $57,600. Households below 80% AMI receive maximum rebate amounts (up to $14,000 total), while those between 80% and 150% AMI receive proportionally scaled rebates. Income is self-certified but may be verified by the program administrator.
Is solar still worth it in Arizona without the federal tax credit?
Solar can still be financially viable in Arizona even without the 25D federal tax credit, given the state's exceptional solar irradiance, among the highest in the country. Arizona offers a state solar tax credit of 25% (up to $1,000), and net metering policies allow homeowners to receive credit for excess energy. However, the loss of the 26–30% federal credit increases payback periods significantly. Arizonans considering solar should get multiple quotes and carefully evaluate the revised economics without the federal incentive.
