The Government of Yukon Pauses the Affordable Heat Pump Program Due to High Demand

January 9, 2025

The Affordable Heat Pump Program (AHPP) is fully subscribed through 2025, with 84 households receiving heat pumps through the program since the program launched on December 19, 2024.

The rapid uptake of the program exceeded expectations, demonstrating Yukoners’ interest in switching to more efficient electric heating sources that result in lower utility costs.

All new applications will be placed on a waitlist. This waitlist will prioritize applications based on the order in which they were submitted, ensuring fairness and transparency for any future program intake.
