To get energy rebates for new and upgraded homes, follow these steps:

1. Check Eligibility: Visit the U.S. Department of Energy's Home Energy Rebates portal to see if your state, territory, or tribe offers rebates. Programs vary by location, so ensure your area has launched its program.

2. Identify Qualified Improvements: Look for eligible home improvements such as energy-efficient appliances, solar panels, insulation, and HVAC systems. The IRS provides a list of qualified expenses for tax credits.

3. Apply for Rebates: Contact your state's energy office or visit their website to apply for rebates. You may need to provide documentation of your upgrades and proof of purchase.

4. Claim Tax Credits: For federal tax credits, use IRS Form 5695 when filing your taxes. This form helps you calculate and claim the credit for qualified energy-efficient improvements.

5. Stay Informed: Keep up with updates on rebate programs and new incentives. The Department of Energy and ENERGY STAR websites offer resources and tools to help you navigate the process.

By following these steps, you can take advantage of available rebates and incentives to save money on your home upgrades.
