I had a tax professional prepare my taxes last year because I purchased a solar solution for home. How do I ensure I receive the rest of my solar tax credit?

In my tax return for 2015, my tax person put us as having a federal carryover (to 2016) of ~4,000 dollars thanks to the solar tax credit.  I'm just curious if there is anything I need to do to in order to get the rest, for this tax year (2016)
