Consumers Energy Heating and Cooling Rebates: Open
Enrollment for 2026 is open. Open. We also offer rebates for installing new high-efficiency heating and cooling units with a participating contractor.
Serves: Consumers Energy service territory throughout Michigan’s Lower Peninsula.
Do I Qualify
- Use a Consumers Energy participating contractor.
- Furnaces require Consumers Energy gas service. Cooling and heat pumps require its electric service.
- The indexed qualifying-measures chart limits central heat pumps to existing heat-pump replacements. Mini-splits must replace primary electric heating.
