The Federal Energy Policy Act, known as 45L, gives home builders $2000 per home built in 2022 that meet certain energy efficiency standards.  In 2023, the New Energy Efficient Homes Tax Credit gives home builders up to $5000 per home, or $1000 per multifamily unit, for qualified energy efficient new construction buildings.
