For more INFORMATION on the ENERGY TAX CREDIT, visit www.IRS.gov or www.EnergySTAR.gov On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed a stimulus bill (The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009) that made some significant changes to the energy efficiency tax credits. The highlights are: • The tax credits that were previously effective for 2009, have been extended to 2010 as well. • The tax credit has been raised from 10% to 30%. • The tax credits that were for a specific dollar amount (ex $300 for a CAC), have been converted to 30% of the cost. • The maximum credit has been raised from $500 to $1500 for the two years (2009–2010). However, some improvements such as geothermal heat pumps, solar water heaters, and solar panels are not subject to the $1,500 maximum. • The $200 cap on windows has been removed.
