VANITY as not a 'sourced story' but thought some citizen reporters here may want to pick this up.

First time I saw a hundred acre field of solar panels of I-70 my first thought was a hailstorm would make short work of it.

I would assume they have insurance of some kind.
It is unfortunate that they did not have some kind of hail mitigation device, you know storm shutters as it were.

Yet money for the landfills, taxpayers/ratepayers screwed again. The chicoms are rejoicing that they’ll supply more.

Strangely, hail can smash up the glass covering the photovoltaic cells and they will still work. I worked at a sporting clays range and the trap batteries were kept charged by solar panels. A couple were on the end of errant shotgun blasts from 30 or so yards. The glass was cracked all over but it still output the normal voltage.

Solar panel farm just down the road from me.
The ten inches of snow we had in the one storm put it out of commission until the panels could be cleaned off.
Yeah, they’re supposed to have ice melt capability.
I have yet to see it actually work.

You paid to install it. I guess you pay to repair and replace it.

I think there’s a former bartender gal from Brooklyn who has some tips for all y’all.

Oh, come-on, we all know man-made climate change caused that hailstorm, we just need to double-down and put solar farms on 1,000,000 acres “to save the erf!”

My neighbors are “renting” solar panels. No money up front, $130 a month in rent. First month’s electric bill was $0.00.
Unless their average electric bill was well over $130 a month I don’t see the point...
