Turns out high-voltage solar panels are a fire risk when you cheap out on wiring. Who knew? It's almost as mysterious as the rolling lithium bombs disguised as EVs.

How common of an occurrence is this? My workplace has rooftop solar panels.

Good question, Amazon had an incident at 12.7% of solar facilities. A cursory search brings up a bunch of articles that implies this happens a lot, but there isn't much in terms of hard data. There are also quite a few green organizations with articles about how it isn't really problem, so it's probably a really serious problem.

This probably can be solved eventually as engineers figure out how to mitigate these issues, but can they do that before the catabolic collapse of civilization caused by green energy makes it moot.

Unless they cheaped out on wiring it is quite unlikely to happen. You have a higher chance that the electric heater that the secretary snuck in burns the building down than properly installed panels burn down

I mean, sort of true since most appliances don't run on DC...but, yeah, that's still a pretty freaking retarded definition.
