Oklahoma law (Title 17 Β§160.10) protects homeowners' right to install solar energy systems and prohibits HOAs from effectively banning solar installations. HOAs may impose reasonable aesthetic requirements but cannot make solar installation impractical or prohibitively expensive.
Oklahoma's solar access law prevents HOAs and deed restrictions from prohibiting solar energy devices. HOAs may require that installations be aesthetically consistent with the neighborhood but cannot impose restrictions that increase costs by more than 10% or reduce efficiency by more than 10%. The law applies to both new and existing CC&Rs. HOAs may require prior approval of installation plans but cannot unreasonably delay the process.
HOA restrictions that effectively prohibit solar installations are void under Oklahoma law. Homeowners may challenge unreasonable restrictions in court. HOA fines for compliant solar installations may be unenforceable.
