As energy costs rise and winter approaches, insulation upgrades remain one of the smartest investments homeowners in North Carolina and South Carolina can make. In 2025, both federal incentives and local rebates from energy providers continue—or in some cases, improve—to reward homeowners who improve their home’s energy efficiency.
Here’s an updated guide to help you understand which tax credits, rebates, and incentives you may qualify for — and how to claim them before they expire.

Why 2025 Is a Great Time to Insulate
Energy prices remain high — making energy-efficient upgrades an even bigger win.
Many homeowners want to maximize winter comfort and savings before heating bills climb.
Government and utility-backed incentives are still available, making insulation more affordable than ever.
π§ Key Incentives & Rebates for NC Homeowners in 2025
1. Federal Energy Efficiency Tax Credits (Home Energy & Retrofit Credits)
The federal government continues to offer tax credits for home energy improvements. For 2025, eligible insulation and air-sealing projects may qualify — including attic, crawl space, wall, and duct insulation. The exact credit amount varies depending on the type and scope of the upgrade.
2. Duke Energy Rebates & Incentives (Up to $700!)
Homeowners served by Duke Energy can take advantage of rebates (up to $700) when they upgrade insulation or perform energy-saving home improvements. Rebates can help offset much of the up-front cost, especially when combined with contractor-installed upgrades from a trusted company like iFOAM Charlotte.
3. Local County & State Programs
Some counties in NC and SC (especially in the Charlotte metro area) offer additional incentives or seasonal savings programs. It’s worth checking local energy-efficiency programs or talking with your contractor about any available local rebates.
What Projects Qualify — and What Homeowners Should Ask For
Attic Insulation (Blown-In Fiberglass or Spray Foam) — one of the most cost-effective upgrades, especially for older homes.
Crawl Space Insulation & Encapsulation — a big win for homes with drafts, cold floors, or moisture issues.
Wall or Floor Insulation Retrofits — ideal when renovating or finishing older homes.
Air Sealing + Insulation Combo — often required for rebates/credits; ensures maximum efficiency.
Commercial or New-Construction Insulation Projects — eligible for incentives when built to modern standards.
