Electric heat pumps are energy efficient and don't burn fossil fuels.
  • States are expected to dole out billions of dollars in rebates later this year for heat pumps.
  • There's already a 30% tax credit for homeowners who make energy-efficiency upgrades.
  • Nine states pledged to boost heat pump sales to 65% of the heating and cooling market by 2030. 

This may be the year to install an electric heat pump at home.
