Wood and pellet stove incentives in Colorado (2026)
The federal 25C tax credit for biomass stoves ended for appliances placed in service after December 31, 2025 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Pub. L. 119-21 §70505, amending IRC §25C). No federal credit applies to a 2026 installation. The table below covers Colorado state, utility, and local programs only.
We could not verify Colorado's incentive programs. The agency pages we check for Colorado blocked our automated review, so we cannot tell you whether a state, utility, or local program currently applies to wood and pellet heating appliances. This is not a finding that no programs exist. Please check your state energy office or air-quality agency directly, and ask your electric or gas utility.

What we could not check in Colorado
Some Colorado sources could not be reached during our review. We list what we tried and what happened, so you can judge the gap yourself rather than read an empty table as an answer.

State and utility sources —
NOT a confirmed absence. energy.colorado.gov and cdola.colorado.gov returned 403/DNS failure on every attempt; Xcel Energy Colorado's heating rebate page loaded only a CSS shell. Wood/pellet eligibility under CO's HEAR program could not be confirmed either way.
