This was very hard to find. It is actually under Credits: Business related non-refundable credits
There is a drop down menu for Solar and Wind. Then you enter the credit available to you and credit you are taking this year. You do not need a certificate number.
These are the qualifications for this credit:
The Solar and Wind Energy Credit is available to owners or tenants of residential property who install a renewable energy source such as a solar hot water system.
The credit is 15% of the cost, including installation, of the renewable energy source. The credit cannot exceed $1,000. If you moved during the year, you may take the $1,000 for each of your principal residences
The residential property must be your principal residence. For example, a summer home does not qualify.
The following must all be true to qualify:
- you must be the first one to use the energy source item
- it must be expected to last five years
- it must meet the performance and quality standards set by the Commissioner of Revenue
