Inflation Reduction Act Tax Credits & Rebates
The 2022 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) included many measures aimed at making energy efficient upgrades and services more affordable. One such measure was the Section 45L Tax Credit for Energy Efficient New Homes, which was updated and extended through 2032. The updated program includes two tiers of tax credits, outlined below.
Energy efficient new homes that meet applicable ENERGY STAR home program or DOE Zero Energy Ready Home (ZERH) program requirements are eligible for incentives. And, AeroBarrier air sealing plays a significant role in builders meeting those requirements. Here are the key takeaways on these tax credits for builders:
ENERGY STAR Tier
- Single-Family New Homes: $2,500 credit for ENERGY STAR-certified homes
- Multi-Family New Homes: $500 credit for ENERGY STAR-certified multi-family units (a larger credit is available for multi-family projects that meet prevailing wage requirements)
Zero Energy Ready Home (ZERH) Tier
- Single-Family New Homes: $5,000 credit for homes that meet ENERGY STAR requirements and are certified to the ZERH program
- Multi-Family New Homes: $1,000 credit for dwelling units that meet ENERGY STAR requirements and are certified to the ZERH program
Contact Northeast Air Sealing to learn more about specific ENERGY STAR and ZERH certification requirements–and how AeroBarrier can help you achieve them.
