Save Money. Stay Comfortable.
Heating and cooling your home can be 50 percent of your energy bill. These programs and rebates can help you do it more efficiently.
Cooling Rebates
Minnesota electric customers can earn up to a $450 rebate for eligible central air conditioners.
Rebates lower the initial cost of high-efficiency equipment, which costs less to operate and is better for the environment.
Eligibility & Details
Xcel electric customers are eligible. Testing is only possible if the outside temperature is 55 degrees or higher, and rebates will not be paid until contractors have tested the unit. Please keep in mind that you may not receive your rebate until spring if you have your unit installed in the late fall or winter.
Eligible Minnesota residents can receive up to $450 in rebates.

Apply for this RebateDuctless Mini-Split Heat Pumps
Earn a cash rebate with the purchase of an eligible, high-efficiency mini-split heat pump
The small size and flexibility for zoning for heating and cooling individual rooms make a ductless mini-split heat pump a great choice when additional ductwork isn’t an option. Since each air handler has its own thermostat, you can condition the space only when it’s occupied, saving you energy and money.
Eligibility & Details
The installation property must be located in Minnesota and receive residential electric service from Xcel Energy to qualify for the rebate.
