on average , 70 days of plant growth . In southern states where the growing season is longer , hemp can be grown twice in one season , doubling the number of tons produced and CO2 sequestration .
● A 1,000-square-foot hemp insulation project receiving R30 value will capture 3.75 tons of CO2 from the air in plant growth . Fiberglass doesn ’ t capture any CO2 emissions , instead creating CO2 , while cellulose has little CO2 sequestration due to slow tree growth .
The new Inflation Reduction Act ( IRA ) carries a swathe of incentives for making homes more energy efficient . The IRA incentives for insulation upgrades are significant and available to everyone .
The High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebates ( HEEHRA ) program includes $ 1,600 for insulation . HEEHRA will cover 100 % of insulation costs ( up to $ 1,600 ) for low-income consumers and 50 % of insulation costs ( up to $ 1,600 ) for moderate-income consumers . 2 1 . The 25C tax credit provides a 30 % tax credit for insulation up to
$ 1,200 per year for consumers of any income . 3
2 . Since insulation can help a larger retrofit achieve energy savings of at least 15 %, it is covered by the Home Energy Performance-Based , Whole-House rebates ( HOMES ). Rebate amounts are below and depend on the estimated energy savings . Incentives for low-income households are doubled , or up to 80 % of project costs . 4
3 . Retrofits with modeled energy system savings of 35 % or more : the lesser of $ 4,000 or 50 % of project costs .
4 . Retrofits with modeled energy system savings of 20-34 %: the lesser of $ 2,000 or 50 % of project costs .
5 . Retrofits with measured energy savings of 15 % or more : a payment rate per kWh equal to $ 2,000 for a 20 % reduction in energy use .
