Save America's Valuable Energy Resources Act of 2005

The Save America’s Valuable Energy Resources Act of 2005 (H.R. 1212) proposes changes to the federal tax code to incentivize energy efficiency in residential and commercial buildings. For homeowners, the bill would provide tax credits to help offset the costs of making energy-saving improvements to existing houses or purchasing newly constructed energy-efficient homes. Additionally, the legislation would allow business owners to claim tax deductions for expenses related to installing energy-efficient systems in commercial properties.
