Amherst Heat Pump Program Reaches Midpoint in Installations

The Amherst Heat Pump Incentive Program, initiated in April 2025, has reached 15 installations with a goal of 30 by the end of 2026. The program offers up to $3,500 in financial incentives to assist homeowners in transitioning to energy-efficient heat pump technology, aiming to reduce fossil fuel reliance.

CET provides additional guidance on various aspects such as eligibility and contractor selection. The initiative supports Amherst's carbon reduction targets and enhances access to clean heating and cooling solutions. The completion of this program could significantly contribute to local sustainability efforts and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region.
