Of course he does! The voices in his head have told him so.
Do I have evidence for this? Of course not.

whatever you want to make of it. Helluva big photoshop job if it ain't real.
Ah, so you're not convinced by the photos either.
i've no doubt about the reality of it. I'm just fascinated to know WHAT he thinks these pictures are showing. He's complaining they're "overgrown with weeds and on the verge of being useless" - but he has no evidence for that.
In your unsupassed knowledge and understanding of these matters, can you tell me by how much the annual power production of the site cited has been reduced by the growth of a few weeds?
I suspect that if the photos showed the weeds being cut down, he'd be complaining about the "f'king environmental disaster underlying. . . "
The final photo in the set is a bit more telling
Depends on how many connections are broken. And whether the whole site is in fact still in use.
But I suspect its more about refuting the 'zero maintenance needed' 'these panels do X ergo they will always do X till they have paid for themselves' claims.
Like the road signs with windmills and solar panels on that simply cease to work after a year or so.
well indeed. By my reckoning the lack of grwoth under any panel equates to about 10% of the energy they produce NOT resulting in carbon fixing into biomass..
Let's cut the rainforest down, and install solar panels instead....

That's not strictly true, you can use a capacitive feedback to provide excitation and voltage stabilisation but then there are problems with inductive loads collapsing the field. We had a marinised Lister with a
10kVA asynchronous generator to run a remote classroom but it was a problematic supply compared with the previous petter synchronous one.But we're missing the main point and that is the FIT is only paid through the meter driven by the PVs inverter and the chances of feeding in ac between them is remote compared with feeding the at the DC output of the panel, even then you'd probably inhibit the contribution from the panel, it just doesn't seem a likely scenario for the small reward.
AJH
That's not what you told us before
You mean a technical college then
That should be "lose", harry. Please learn to spell.
Are you talking about the 2 year old site or the 22 year old site?
The ones in the last photo may well have paid for themselves already.
So no knowledge then - just 'your reckoning'
Don't ask for the impossible.
Oh dear oh dear harry.
They didn't teach you much in your needlework class did they?
Lets see if you can do a simple O level maths question
A solar panel turns 20% of the sunlight that fall on it into electricity.
Plant life turns between 0.1 and 1% of the light that falls into it into carbon based energy, removing CO2 from the atmosphere as they do..
The plants cannot grow in the shade of the solar panel.
How much of the CO2 emissions gained are lost due to the loss of plant life beneath the panel.
Express your answer in percent.
Harry? Why are you addressing Harry? Do pay attention.
Now look at the first set of the pictures and ask yourself where the plants are growing.
As for your question - do you really have plants growing on your roof?
Oh I asumed from the stupidity of te post it was harry. Muy bad.
Between the panels
Of course. Lichens mainly. Soem mosses.
They grow really well on panels too.
For those who've not checked the pictures, TNP is being obtuse. Short plants ARE growing between the panels, but the plants that are really thriving are under the panels.
Really? I very much doubt it.
Last year you had an HNC in domestic science or something
Now you have a degree?
Were you lying then or are you lying now?
Its all a natter of degree..

So what is it Harry,
Do you actually have a degree or not?
Even simpler, buy a big battery charger, plug it in to the mains and connect it across the PV array.
Robert
I do like this! Lyn
That's a no, then.
So not a degree as you claimed above ...
