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.
North Carolina's Energy Saver NC program (run by the DEQ State Energy Office) launched in January 2025 and became available in all 100 counties by early 2026, offering both HEAR and Home Efficiency (HOMES) rebates. Windows fit under the whole-home efficiency track, where rebates scale with income and projected energy savings. Confirm current availability first.
