Inflation Reduction Act: Green Credits and Rebates

If you’re reading this, you’re likely interested in living a green lifestyle and looking for ways to shrink your carbon footprint. Of course, some of the options available that are good for both you and the planet — like the freedom of a solar panel system, or saying goodbye to gas-price fluctuations with an electric vehicle — are much larger decisions than others. Upgrades that improve your home’s energy efficiency, like new insulation or ENERGY STAR-certified appliances, might also feel like they’re not in the budget. But if these initial costs are holding you back, there’s good news: rebates and tax credits through the Inflation Reduction Act mean that greening your life is now more accessible than ever.

The Environmental Defense Fund also has more information on how you can put these green incentives to work for you.
