As the world heats up, solar panels will degrade faster – especially in hot, humid areas. What can we do?

Retrieved on: 
Friday, February 16, 2024

We found solar in Australia’s hot, humid north will degrade fastest, while solar in the arid interior and more moderate climates down south will fare better.

Key Points: 
  • We found solar in Australia’s hot, humid north will degrade fastest, while solar in the arid interior and more moderate climates down south will fare better.
  • When you’re looking to install solar on your rooftop, the warranty will likely be a factor in your eventual choice.
