A property tax exemption for solar power systems in
California has been extended to 2025, following the passing of a bill as part
of the annual state budget.
Senate Bill 871 (SB871) was approved during the signing of
the budget by governor Jerry Brown, which took place last week. The wording of
SB871 extends the period during which property taxes will not be applied to
"active solar energy systems", which includes PV and solar water
heaters.
