New Homes Federal Tax Credit

Under the Federal Energy Policy Act of 2005, builders can qualify for a tax credit of $2,000 per home for improving the energy efficiency of new homes. Improving energy efficiency can be done using standard construction methods simply by improving the levels of insulation and other elements of the building envelope and enhancing major systems. The energy efficiency tax credit is in effect for homes built between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2009.

Qualified homes will provide a level of heating and cooling at least 50 percent below the 2004 Supplement to the 2003 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). The building envelope alone must provide 10 percent of the 50 percent improvement. The tax credit goes directly to builders who can receive credit for every home constructed that meets eligibility requirements. There is no limit to the number of homes that can qualify. Homes must be tested for whole-house air leakage and duct leakage by a Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET) certified rater, and the documentation, including test reports and computer analysis, must be certified by a RESNET accredited provider.

Energy Star

Energy Star is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy's joint initiative to promote energy efficiency in new homes, existing homes, commercial buildings, and industrial buildings. To earn the ENERGY STAR, a home must meet guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These tests must be performed by a certified RESNET rater.

These homes are at least 15% more energy efficient than homes built to the 2004 International Residential Code and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20-30% more efficient than standard homes. Any home three stories or less can earn the ENERGY STAR label if it has been verified to meet EPA's guidelines.

ENERGY STAR qualified homes can include a variety of energy-efficient features that contribute to improved home quality and homeowner comfort, and to lower energy demand and reduced air pollution:

• Effective Insulation
• High-Performance Windows
• Tight Construction and Ducts
• Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment
• Efficient Products - (lighting fixtures, ventilation fans, and appliances,etc)
