In an effort to reduce the environmental impact of burning wood, the United States government has announced a new tax credit for wood stoves, pellet stoves and other wood burning appliances like fireplace inserts. This tax credit, which will be available for the 2023 tax year, is designed to make wood burning a more affordable option for homeowners while maximizing your tax return through your qualifying purchase.

Yes, in addition to the new 2023 credit, the CARES Act also extended a tax credit for the installation of energy-efficient products, such as insulation, windows, and doors. This tax credit was originally set to expire in 2017, but has been extended through 2032. Homeowners who purchased and installed these energy-efficient products in 2021 can receive a credit of up to 10% of the cost, up to $500.
The 2023 Energy Tax Credit
The 2023 tax credit is available to individuals who purchase and install energy-efficient wood stoves, fireplaces, and other wood-burning appliances. The credit is available for up to 30 percent of the cost of the appliance, up to $2,000. The appliances must be purchased and installed between January 1st, 2023 to December 31st, 2032. The cost and installation of chimney or venting pipe and any electric work done to connect appliances can also qualify for this tax credit.

As the push for renewable energy sources continues to grow, the 2023 tax credit for wood stoves and wood burning appliances is an important step in the right direction. The credit is designed to encourage the purchase and use of clean-burning, energy-efficient wood stoves, fireplaces, and other wood-burning appliances.
The primary aim of the 2023 tax credit is to promote the use of renewable energy sources, such as wood, as an alternative to traditional energy sources, such as fossil fuels. By providing a financial incentive for individuals to purchase and install wood stoves and other wood-burning appliances, this tax credit will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the need for electricity and natural gas.
In addition to the tax credits, the government has also implemented other incentives for the purchase and installation of wood stoves and wood burning appliances. For example, some states have implemented grants and rebates for the purchase and installation of wood stoves and wood burning appliances. These grants and rebates can help make the purchase of a wood stove or wood burning appliance more affordable.
