There are 2 different residential energy credits available, depending on what type of heat pump you installed.  

 

The Residential Energy Efficient Product (RCE) credit, this credit is available for qualified equipment placed in homes before 2035, including:

 

  • Solar electric equipment
  • Solar water heating equipment
  • Fuel cell equipment (principal residence only and limited to $500 per 0.5 kilowatt)
