California AB 15 (20112012 Special Session 1) — Property tax: newly constructed: exclusion: active solar energy system.
The California Constitution generally limits ad valorem taxes on real property to 1% of the full cash value of that property.

Pursuant to an authorization in the California Constitution, existing law excludes from classification as "newly constructed" the construction or addition of an active solar energy system. Existing law defines "active solar energy systems for purposes of this exclusion to mean a system that uses solar devices, which are thermally isolated from living space or any other area where the energy is used, to provide for the collection, storage, or distribution of solar energy.
