I replaced exterior windows of my main residence last year. The new windows are energy efficient. However, the energy credit shows zero, and I don't understand why.

One possibility is that your income tax has been reduced to $0 by other credits or the level of your income. The energy credit cannot be used in that case, but can be carried over to future years. You can look at your tax summary to see:
