How the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit Works

The Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (sometimes called the 25C credit) covers 30% of the cost of qualifying home upgrades, up to a maximum of $1,200 per year for insulation and air sealing.

It’s available now through 2032 (but our advice is to act sooner rather than later—more on that below).

You can combine this credit with other incentives like Efficiency Maine rebates to stack your savings even higher.

How to Claim the Insulation Tax Credit in Maine

A tax credit reduces the amount of taxes you owe when you file—they are a different kind of incentive than a rebate, where you receive a direct check or upfront discount.

Efficiency Maine and the IRS are both good resources for homeowners looking to take advantage of this tax credit:

Act Now to Guarantee Your Savings

Right now, federal incentives for energy upgrades are stronger than ever. But future political changes could impact these programs—and possibly even eliminate them early.

That’s why we recommend taking advantage of tax credits while they’re available. The sooner you upgrade, the sooner you can lock in your savings—and enjoy a more comfortable, efficient home.

The folks at Evergreen did a great job fixing a rather major insulation problem in my house, which they helped identify with a great audit. When the work began, they were thorough, upbeat, and -- dare I say it -- efficient. I strongly recommend them.

First we have Evergreen do a BIG project worth about $20K (windows, basement, insulate & rebuild an entire wall, a door, attics, and air sealing). They were so great we had them come back later when we decided we did want to do our other door. They are professional and do great work. They take care of your home and are trustworthy, and on top of all that friendly! I highly recommend you call them!

We had Evergreen redo the insulation in our roof. The team handling our project did a great job. They left the house spotless. We've already noticed the difference in how much better our house is retaining heat. I would definitely recommend and will use them for future projects.

We had Evergreen Home Performance of Rockland come in to make our home more energy efficient, and what a TOP notch crew. Brian and his crew did an amazing job from start to finish. Very knowledgeable and professional. We would Definitely highly recommend this crew to anyone who is looking for energy efficiency in their home with a company that truly is an expert and knows how to do a quality job and truly cares about their customer.

Working with Brian and with Nate and the rest of the crew was a pleasure. They made everything very easy and understandable. This was a major renovation and they were always at the ready with a lot of information. We had an extensive renovation on the basement which was a dirt basement and it came out beautifully. We can already tell from all of the insulation work what a difference it's made in sound and temperature. Brian worked with me on the rebates that are available when you do this kind of work. I would highly recommend this company to…

Really great experience from start to finish with Evergreen. They helped us prioritize what needed to be completed first, and has made a significant difference in our hearing costs already. Plus they were really friendly and considerate to work with!

Very easy process, start to finish.  Friendly, professional, and really know their stuff.  They made some improvements to our condo and we were very happy with how it played out.  Would definitely recommend them.

A thorough inspection of our (older) house and its energy needs. Competent and personable work crew.

My husband and I bought a home on the water in Owls Head and decided to make the investment in Evergreen's recommendations for insulation. Brian Robinson spent 3 hours examining every nook and cranny before he made practical suggestions and explained them thoroughly to us.

I cant say enough about this company and the benefits that it created for our family. They are very professional and have effectively re-insulated our home. The heating bill proves the point.
