I think I'll wait a bit. I already got very grudging approval from the Board for some portable solar panels to charge my Jackery on the promise they'd only be deployed in a power-outage emergency. (I keep it plugged in, so the panels would be to replenish it, to run my husband's medical equipment.) And I had to get rid of a trellis because it "looks too much like a balcony enclosure." I could get approval by getting on the Board myself, lol. But I was President of the Board about 30 years ago and it's more work than I have time for now. Pretty soon solar will be widely used so they'll get more comfortable with it, and the panels will improve and get cheaper too.
