IRS
In February 2006, the IRS rules for the tax credits for energy efficient new construction available under the Energy Policy Act of 2005 were released. A new home qualifies for a $2000 tax credit to the builder if it is certified to have 50% lower heating and cooling than the 2004 Supplement to the 2003 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). 10% of the savings must come from envelope improvements.
The IRS specified that the savings must be calculated in accordance with Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET) Publication No. 05-001. Read the RESNET rules for Tax Credits. Get a copy of the IRS Tax Credit Form 8908 that builders use to claim tax credits. This form has summary information on how the credits work. Read the more detailed Tax Credit Rules. Visit the IRS web site with the IRS Tax Credit Notices.
