Mid-Year Check In for Home Electrification in 2025: Costs, Rebates, and Upgrades
Electrification isn’t just a trend—it’s quickly becoming the smarter, healthier, and more cost-effective way to power your home. Thanks to new rebates rolling out in 2025, electric upgrades are more affordable and accessible than ever.
At My Electric Home, our mission is simple: to take the guesswork out of your electrification journey. Here’s what you need to know about the rebates, incentives, and opportunities available to Colorado homeowners right now.
Colorado’s 2025 Home Energy Rebates
The Colorado Home Energy Rebate Program, managed by the Colorado Energy Office (CEO), helps homeowners reduce upfront costs when installing high-efficiency electric appliances or making whole-home energy upgrades. Pending federal approval this winter, the program will roll out two main rebate types: Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR), which cover efficient electric appliances and related upgrades, and Home Efficiency Rebates (HER), which support broader whole-home efficiency improvements.
Rebate amounts are based on several factors, including household income, whether the home is single-family or multifamily, and the level of energy savings achieved through the upgrades. This structure ensures that the program provides meaningful support tailored to different needs and circumstances.
Denver & Front Range Incentives Worth Knowing
Alongside statewide rebates, local programs, and utility incentives are making home electrification more accessible and affordable than ever. Under Colorado’s Home Electrification and Appliance Rebate (HEAR) program, qualifying homes can receive up to $4,000 off electrical panel upgrades and up to $2,500 for wiring work, helping ensure homes can safely and efficiently accommodate high-efficiency electric appliances. This is turning heads of Colorado residents, the work reduces monthly energy costs and cuts pollution.
In Denver, the Climate Action Rebate (CARe) program offers steep rebates—such as 80% of electric service upgrade costs and thousands in savings on heat pump systems, smart water heaters, EV chargers, and more. This helpful incentive gives homeowners peace of mind when making the switch from gas to electric. Many find it much cheaper and helps homeowners save long-term on both heating and cooling.
Finally, Xcel Energy’s 2025 EV‐charger incentives provide up to $500 off for installing a 240-volt circuit, which means faster EV charging at home, less dependence on public transportation, and overall reduced transportation emissions.
Together, these programs significantly lower the barrier to electrifying your home, helping you transition to more efficient systems with less upfront cost and better long-term benefits.

Switching from gas to electric doesn’t just help the environment—it’s about building a healthier, more resilient home. Electric support lower long-term energy costs with efficient appliances like heat pump water heaters (HPWHs). Electric supports cleaner indoor air quality, eliminating the risk of gas leaks.
