What stacks on top for Xcel Energy customers
Under HEAR's published caps, heat pumps (including ductless systems) can qualify for up to $8,000 for income-qualified households.
Save Energy MN has not launched and its amounts are provisional. HEAR cannot pay retroactively; timing the project matters if your household is income-qualified.
Mini-splits count as heat pumps for HEAR purposes, so the same warning applies: income-qualified households that install before Save Energy MN launches walk away from the federal share.

Get a mini-split estimate from a contractor who knows the rebates
Free to you — one licensed Minnesota contractor gets your request and quotes the project with the rebate stack applied. Participating contractors pay to receive estimate requests; that never changes your price.
Get one email the day the $14,000 rebates launch
Save Energy Minnesota has no launch date, and starting work early can forfeit the money — HEAR can't pay retroactively, and the state can't guarantee earlier HOMES projects will qualify. We watch the Commerce page so you don't have to — you'll know the day it goes live, with your tier and the official link. We never sell your email.
