Key Information
House Bill 5028 removes homeowner’s association (HOA) restrictions and allows Michiganders to install or upgrade energy-efficient appliances in their home and on their property, including solar panels, heat pumps, clotheslines, rain barrels, insulation, reflective roofing, electric vehicle charging equipment, energy efficient windows, and more. HB 5028 also requires HOAs to establish written policy for solar panels by July 2025, increasing the number of homes eligible for solar panel installation and other energy-saving improvements, saving Michiganders money on electricity bills, reducing red tape surrounding HOA approvals, and increasing access to clean energy across the state.
