Biomass Heating Rebates (PEI)
PEI pays 10% back on wood pellets and firewood with no income limit — often instantly at the register — plus up to $2,000 on biomass stoves and boilers ($3,500 for households under $35,000 income). One of the few PEI heating rebates that survived the 2026 program cuts.
