Rebates & incentives in Mississippi
The federal window tax credit (25C) ended for projects placed in service after December 31, 2025. If your windows were installed in 2025, you can still claim it on your 2025 return — but for new projects there is no federal window credit. State and utility programs are now the main source of window incentives.
Mississippi's IRA Home Energy Rebates are administered through the Mississippi Development Authority Office of Energy (Energy & Natural Resources). As of mid-2026 consumer-facing HOMES/HEAR pathways were not clearly open for standard single-family window projects — treat status as pending and confirm at mississippi.org / MDA Office of Energy before promising rebate money. Windows would generally fit only inside a whole-home modeled-savings track when programs launch, not as a retail per-window check. See our Hattiesburg guide for the full program list.
