The federal energy tax credits have expired
Costs and payback figures on this page may still assume a federal credit that no longer exists. The 30% Residential Clean Energy Credit (25D) and the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) both ended for property placed in service after 31 December 2025, and the home EV charger credit (30C) ended after 30 June 2026. Assume no federal credit on work done today.

Get a personalized roadmap for your home electrification journey. Our free tool analyzes your situation and recommends the best upgrade sequence.
Where is your home located?
This helps us factor in climate and available incentives.
How This Tool Works
Our electrification order calculator analyzes six key factors about your home and situation to create a customized upgrade roadmap:
- Climate zone: Cold climates may prioritize heat pumps differently than hot climates
- Current heating system: Switching from oil saves more than switching from gas
- Electrical capacity: Panel upgrades often need to come first
- Available incentives: We factor in federal tax credits and state rebates
- Your budget: We sequence upgrades to match your financial situation
- EV plans: Electric vehicles affect panel capacity requirements
Why Order Matters
The sequence of your electrification upgrades can significantly impact your costs and savings. For example:
- Installing a heat pump before upgrading your panel may require expensive rewiring later
- Adding solar before electrifying your heating means you'll undersize your system
- Poor insulation makes heat pumps work harder and reduces savings
