How much you get
Central Hudson runs its heat pump rebate through the statewide NYS Clean Heat program. The amount is tiered by system size and by how much of your fossil-fuel heating you remove, not a single flat number.
Air-source heat pump, partial offset
Per 10,000 Btuh of capacity, when the heat pump backs up existing fossil-fuel heat rather than replacing it outright.
Air-source heat pump, full fossil-fuel removal
Removing the oil, propane, or gas furnace entirely bumps the per-Btuh rate up; Central Hudson and NYSERDA confirm the exact figure at application.
Ground-source (geothermal), single-family retrofit
The largest available tier, for whole-home geothermal conversions.
Because the rate depends on capacity (Btuh) and how much fossil fuel you're displacing, the only way to get your Poughkeepsie number is to run it through Central Hudson's NYS Clean Heat contractor network — a participating installer calculates the tier during your quote.

Stacking it with other programs
Homeowners in Poughkeepsie can typically layer the federal 25C tax credit (up to $2,000) and, for lower-income households, the federal HEAR rebate on top of the Clean Heat incentive. Ask your contractor to itemize each program separately on the quote — combined they usually cover the largest share of a full conversion in Dutchess County.
