I entered into a contract with a window installation contractor on 12/29/2023 to install energy efficient (energy star) windows on my house, however, the windows won't be installed until March 2024. Because I entered into the contract in 2023, can I claim the tax credit on my 2023 tax return, or have to wait until the 2024 return?

Since the installation will not be completed until March 2024, you can only enter the cost of the windows as an energy credit on the 2024 tax return you file next year.
No. You cannot claim the credit until the windows are actually installed. So since they won't be installed until this year, you will need to wait until you file your 2024 return to claim the Home Energy Credit.
The Home Improvement Energy Efficient Credit is a non-refundable credit
