Today, Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources John Streicker announced a new firewood rebate to provide financial relief for Yukoners buying firewood to heat their homes. The rebate is available to Yukon households and provides $50 for each cord of firewood purchased, to a maximum of 10 cords, to offset home heating costs.
Applicants must submit a proof of delivery form signed by their firewood supplier when applying for the rebate. The new rebate is available for firewood purchased between April 1, 2022, to March 31, 2023.
For more information and to download a proof of delivery form, visit yukon.ca/firewood-rebate.
Yukon homeowners relying on firewood to heat their homes are experiencing higher prices this year. This new rebate will help alleviate some of those additional expenses as we work with the commercial timber harvesting industry to provide a stable and consistent long-term supply of firewood.

The firewood supplier must have a valid Yukon corporate registration number.
The firewood rebate is part of a suite of rebates available under the Good Energy incentive program.
