Deductions & credits
Do you have enough tax liability to claim the credit? The biomass credit is part of the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit. This is a nonrefundable credit that cannot be carried forward. Which means it is a use it or lose it credit. So if you do not have a tax liability in the tax year you are filing for on line 16 of your form 1040 for it to offset, or you already have enough other non-refundable credits to offset it, you will not be able to claim this credit.
