Forgot to claim energy credit (5695) in '20 & got a refund. It's nonrefundable but carries over & I owed in'21. Can I file an amended '20 return to get the $500 in '21?

yes you can and should amend 2020.  reason for filing  - to claim energy credit not reported on the original return. then wait a few weeks before filing an amended or original return for 2021
