Tax credits for home energy improvements

Krishnamoorthi describes an expanded annual tax credit for energy-efficient improvements to an existing main home in the United States. The credit covers up to 30% of eligible costs, with an overall maximum of $3,200; separate limits apply to heat pumps, heat-pump water heaters, biomass stoves, energy audits, doors, windows, insulation and electrical-panel upgrades. Landlords and other owners who do not live in the home cannot claim it, and the credit is claimed for the year the property is installed.

Context: The page presents the credit rules as of its June 15, 2023 update; it is an in-office constituent information resource, not a campaign statement.

In their own words

You can't claim the credit if you're a landlord or other property owner who doesn't live in the home.
