Electric Stove in Colorado: What’s Available in 2026
Electric stoves and induction cooktops qualify for up to $840 in HEAR rebates. Switching from gas to electric cooking eliminates indoor combustion pollutants and qualifies as a home electrification upgrade under the Inflation Reduction Act.
Electric Stove and Cooktop Rebates
The HEAR program offers up to $840 for electric stoves, cooktops, ranges, and ovens. This includes both traditional electric resistance models and induction cooktops. The rebate applies to the appliance cost and may include basic installation.
For households at or below 80% AMI, the full cost is covered up to $840. Households between 80-150% AMI receive 50% of costs up to the cap. While $840 won't cover a high-end induction range, it makes a meaningful dent in the cost of most standard electric stoves, which typically run $500-$2,000.
Induction cooktops deserve special attention. They use electromagnetic fields to heat cookware directly, making them faster, more precise, and more efficient than gas or traditional electric coils. Portable induction burners start around $50-$100, while full induction ranges run $1,000-$3,000. The HEAR rebate can cover a large portion of mid-range induction models.
Health is another driver behind this rebate. Research has shown that gas stoves release nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter into your home, with links to increased asthma risk, particularly in children. Switching to electric eliminates these indoor combustion byproducts entirely.
Qualifying for the HEAR Stove Rebate
To qualify for the electric stove rebate, the appliance must replace a gas-powered cooking appliance or be a new installation in a qualifying home. Here's what you need to know:
- Eligible appliances: Electric ranges, electric cooktops, induction ranges, induction cooktops, and electric wall ovens all qualify. The key requirement is that it must be an electric cooking appliance.
- ENERGY STAR not always required: Unlike heat pumps and water heaters, ENERGY STAR certification is not currently required for electric cooking appliances to qualify for HEAR in most states. However, check your state's specific program requirements.
- Installation costs: If switching from gas to electric requires new wiring (such as a 240V outlet), that installation cost may be covered under the separate $2,500 wiring rebate, not the $840 stove rebate.
- Point-of-sale rebate: Like other HEAR rebates, this is applied at the time of purchase through participating retailers or contractors, not as a tax credit claimed later.
If you're switching from gas to electric, make sure your kitchen has or can accommodate a 240V outlet. Most electric ranges require a dedicated 40-50 amp circuit. If your electrical panel needs an upgrade to support this, remember that the panel upgrade has its own $4,000 HEAR rebate.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I get for a electric stove in Colorado?
Nothing yet. HEAR is launched, funds reserved (waitlist) in Colorado, so no federal electric stove rebate can be claimed there today, and rebates are generally not paid for work completed before a programme launches. Once it opens, the federal framework allows up to varies for households at or below 80% of Area Median Income, and 50% of the cost up to the same cap for households between 80% and 150% AMI. Utility rebates may be available now regardless.
Is the HEAR program open in Colorado for electric stove rebates?
The HEAR status in Colorado is: Launched, funds reserved (waitlist). The programme has launched but availability is limited, so check the official programme page for the current terms.
Can I combine electric stove rebates with other incentives in Colorado?
Yes. In Colorado, you can typically stack HEAR rebates with HOMES whole-home rebates (if you qualify for both), state-specific programmes like Colorado Heat Pump Incentive, and with utility rebates. Combined incentives generally cannot exceed 100% of the project cost, and the same measure cannot always be claimed twice.
What income qualifies for the maximum electric stove rebate in Colorado?
To qualify for the maximum rebate, your household income must be at or below 80% of Area Median Income (AMI) for your county in Colorado. For example, in Denver County, 80% AMI for a family of 4 is $106,800. Households between 80% and 150% AMI receive 50% of costs up to the cap.
How much is the rebate for an electric stove?
The HEAR program provides up to $840 for electric stoves, ranges, cooktops, and ovens. Households at or below 80% AMI get 100% of costs covered up to $840. Households between 80-150% AMI get 50% of costs up to the cap.
Do induction cooktops qualify for the rebate?
Yes. Induction cooktops and induction ranges qualify for the same $840 HEAR rebate as traditional electric stoves. Induction models are more energy-efficient and cook faster than conventional electric or gas, making them an excellent choice if you're switching from gas.
Do I need to have a gas stove currently to qualify?
The rebate is primarily designed for electrification, which means replacing gas appliances with electric ones. However, eligibility rules vary by state. Some states may allow the rebate for any qualifying electric cooking appliance purchase, while others may specifically require it to replace a gas unit. Check your state's HEAR program guidelines.
What about the cost of installing a 240V outlet for my new electric stove?
If switching from gas to electric requires new electrical wiring, such as running a 240V circuit to your kitchen, that cost may be covered under the separate $2,500 HEAR wiring rebate rather than the $840 stove rebate. This means the combined rebates for a new electric stove plus wiring could reach $3,340.
