Invalidating restrictive covenants that limit or prohibit the installation of solar panels and allowing the adoption of reasonable rules by homeowners associations concerning solar panels.

SB 144 invalidates neighborhood agreements (like HOA rules) that block rooftop solar panel installations on residential homes, effective July 1, 2025. Homeowners in communities with such agreements will no longer be restricted from installing solar panels. Homeowners associations may still create reasonable rules about solar panels, but these rules cannot prohibit rooftop installations. The law takes effect after its publication in state statutes.
