Changes to Federal Tax Credits for Energy Efficiency

Now Through December 31, 2025

Signed into law on July 4, 2025, the H.R.1 - One Big Beautiful Bill Act, eliminates certain federal energy efficient home improvement tax credits at the end of 2025.

Homeowners in Chelan County sometimes pair* Chelan PUD energy efficiency rebates with the federal tax credits to maximize savings, so we want to make customers aware of these upcoming changes at the federal level. 

*Note: If you're looking to take advantage of both a Chelan PUD rebate and federal tax credits, you'll need to make sure the equipment you install meets the qualification requirements for each program.

Homeowners now have until December 31, 2025, to install qualifying equipment and take advantage of federal tax credits for home energy-efficient improvements.
