Form 5695 is used to claim tax credits for qualifying energy-efficient improvements made to your home. This includes the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (for insulation, windows, doors, heat pumps) and the Residential Clean Energy Credit (for solar panels, wind turbines, geothermal systems, and battery storage).
Part I (Residential Clean Energy Credit): Enter the costs for solar electric, solar water heating, fuel cell, wind energy, geothermal, or battery storage property.
Add up all qualifying costs and multiply by the credit percentage (30% for installations in 2022-2032).
Part II (Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit): Enter costs for insulation, exterior doors, windows/skylights, and qualifying heating/cooling equipment.
Apply the annual limits: $1,200 total for most improvements, $2,000 for heat pumps and biomass stoves.
Calculate the total credit from both parts.
If you cannot use the full Residential Clean Energy Credit this year, carry forward the unused portion.
Enter the total credit on Schedule 3 (Form 1040), line 5.
