North Carolina H856 clarifies that deed restrictions, covenants, or similar binding agreements cannot prohibit the installation of solar collectors on residential properties. This law aims to encourage the use of solar energy while ensuring that owners' associations are not held responsible for solar collectors unless explicitly agreed in writing. The bill also allows for restrictions on the location or screening of solar collectors if they do not significantly reduce efficiency. This act applies to deed restrictions recorded after its effective date.
