Hydro-Québec's LogisVert in 2026: heat pump at $50 or $120 per 1,000 BTU/h, thermal storage $22,000, solar, induction

Renovation · LogisVert · 2026 amounts

Since Rénoclimat dropped heat pumps, LogisVert is the only door. Here is each measure and its amount, the capacity that counts (at -8°C, not nominal), and the deadlines.

LogisVert is Hydro-Québec's energy-efficiency program for residential customers. In 2026 it pays $50 per 1,000 BTU/h of heating capacity at -8°C for an ENERGY STAR certified heat pump, and $120 per 1,000 BTU/h if it is classified cold climate; $250 per 1,000 BTU/h to replace a geothermal heat pump and $750 per 1,000 BTU/h for a new geothermal system; $22,000 for a central thermal storage unit paired with a central heat pump ($15,000 for the storage alone); $1,500 for roof insulation with caulking; $250 for an induction range and $250 for a heat-pump dryer; $125 or $300 for a two-speed or variable-speed pool pump; $1,000 per kilowatt of solar panels, up to 40% of costs; 5% more when several measures are combined; $100 more per 1,000 BTU/h in multi-unit buildings in energy-insecure areas. Conditions: be a Hydro-Québec customer, use an RBQ-licensed contractor and apply within nine months of installation. Modest-income households can get a wall-mounted heat pump at no cost.

The capacity that counts

Aid is calculated on heating capacity at -8°C, not the nominal capacity printed on the box: an "18,000 BTU" wall unit often delivers only 12,000 to 15,000 at -8°C, and that figure, listed in Hydro-Québec's eligible-equipment list, sets the aid. Example: 12,000 BTU/h at -8°C gives $600 for a standard ENERGY STAR model and $1,440 for a cold-climate model; a 36,000 BTU/h central unit at -8°C, $1,800 or $4,320. Ask the installer for the capacity at -8°C and the model number before signing.

Procedure and deadlines

Apply online in Hydro-Québec's customer space within nine months of the installation date, with the itemized invoice (model, serial number, the installer's RBQ licence). Aid is set by the installation date: when Hydro-Québec revises its amounts, that date decides. Measures combine with each other with the 5% bonus, and with Rénoclimat on separate work (Rénoclimat for walls and windows, LogisVert for the heat pump). Modest-income households can obtain a wall-mounted heat pump at no cost through Hydro-Québec's dedicated stream.

What the heat pump changes at resale

On the South Shore, a recent central heat pump is one of the few pieces of equipment buyers pay for in the price: it appears on the listing, lowers the Hydro bill and replaces air conditioning. A 12,000 BTU wall unit in a 1,200 square foot bungalow pays back in comfort more than in value. See renovating before selling.

Frequently asked questions

How much does LogisVert give for a wall-mounted heat pump in 2026?

$50 per 1,000 BTU/h of capacity at -8°C for an ENERGY STAR model, $120 for a cold-climate model: $600 to $1,440 for a 12,000 BTU/h wall unit at -8°C.

Do I need Rénoclimat for LogisVert?

No. LogisVert is requested directly from Hydro-Québec, without an energy evaluation, within nine months of installation.

Does LogisVert cover oil heating?

It covers the heat pump and the electric central heating that replace an oil system, but not removal of the tank; Chauffez vert, which did, ended March 31, 2026.

Is solar subsidized?

Yes, $1,000 per installed kilowatt, up to 40% of costs, for a grid-connected installation.
