Tax credits or incentives – Federal or state?

mikkelsen | Posted in General Questions on

Hi, getting ready to build and it seams like there ought to be some substantial tax credits or incentives for building a super insulated and energy efficient home…can’t find any though…am I looking in the wrong places or are there really no incentives for new construction being done right? Location: Idaho.

Thanks!

    Eric,
    Start here: Idaho: Incentives/Policies for Renewables & Efficiency.

    Once you've looked there (the DSIRE site), investigate the Energy Star Homes program. In some states, Energy Star homes receive subsidized services or incentives.
