As incentives and rebates continue in a constant state of flux, it can be difficult to navigate finding out the best materials for different building locations. One great resource is the DSIRE (Database of State Incentives for Renewable Energy) which keeps an up to date list of energy incentives by region. Simply click on your state and review the numerous discounts, tax credits, and rebates available for your state.

One last website that calculates your energy savings with your new roofing selection is the Energy Star Roofing Calculator.
