Reason why landlords and other tenants should lose their properties to fire
So because of the possibility of an accident, you now rather trek than board any vehicle?

What are the possibilities of a solar panel going up in flames on a roof is this a common phenomenon or is it unusual? I have plans to get one soon.
the possibility is zero..this OP is just been mischievous... solar panels do not generate that can of power that can burn or ignite anything..where the transformation comes into play is in the inverter..if you say that one is catching fire..I can believe you..but a solar panel?very highly unlikely.

That video was fake, solar panels are not responsible for the fire and the roofs can't burn without an inflammable item. Besides, the Inverter would have indicated an anomaly long before the cables get burnt.

Call for your solar installations, mail "my username" at Yah000 d0t c0m

Almost 15year I have been using it, how many houses don burn,
All these useless write up is from an envious person who can't afford it

That’s not the reason I was expecting. From my experience the removal of those solar panels by tenants when they are leaving, leaves holes on the roof cover. So the tenant has vacated your property but you are then left with a damaged roof cover to replace.
The only reason I am letting a tenant install solar panels on my roof is if they are willing to leave them behind when they are vacating.

Safety first.

When you build yours, put it there
The panel is too much, 4 to 6 panels is okay with 1 to 2 large battery. And there should be CCTV and fire extinguisher. Burning down a building because of solar doesn't worth it

that's exactly how Africa think backward, they don't even know what caused the fire to start with, because of ordinary pictures
Handwork of NEPA to discourage the use

Bluette:
The cause of burning solar panels like the picture depicts above is when the solar power is being overloaded.
They help in calculating the load your solar panel can carry, if it can't be enough, you shed your appliances. Use 1 for some hours before changing etc.
Just get a good solar person for consultation.
that picture is fake or the cause of the fire is not solar panels...solar panels does not over load .never .. nothing like that...the inverter or battery yes .but not the panel..the work of the panels is simply go charge the battery,there is no load on the panel..the op is just a fear monger and should be highly discouraged.

To avoid this, contact expert to help you do Ur installations, make sure you use quality products for the installation (don't because of money buy anyhow product) and make sure you yourself maintain the solar system very well.

Ok thanks for the explanation I was wondering too when I saw this post cause I have never heard that a solar panel went up in flames before on a roof.

Hope, experts study this and know of potential hazards.
Maybe the quality of the solar panels, find different brands that won't ignite fire during the sunny weather or betterstill be mounted away from the rooftops.

LOL, burning down a whole building or roof because of solar panels will be a biggest mistake

Many tenants in my area has been using solar panels,and there is no news like fire explosion.
I don't think it was the solar panels that caused the fire explosion.

I have never seen this and don’t know something like this exists until now.

May tenant mount Sola in the roof and this is giving me a rethink.

Her rent will be due by June, so what do you guy think?
Oga land lord respect urself and don't look like an illiterate,
I have been using solar for almost 15years now and all I get from neighbors is envy, op is an envious person cos he can't afford it,
The new apartment I rented now, my landlord had to buy and install solar cos he saw mine, the house don burn?
Don't let anyone decieve u,
The op has even never seen solar or touched soar panel in his life, he just saw a picture that can be edited online and pasted just to get to frontpage
Re: When The Landlord Says "No Solar Panels On My Roof". This Is Why (Photo) by gabbasin(m): 12:10pm On Mar 09, 2025
This particular picture is being posted everywhere to discredit solar power and it's making me to doubt the credibility of the picture. I have a 1.5kva solar system and I am enjoying it, it's been 2 months and it has been uninterrupted power in my home. 24/7 light either off grid or on grid
Re: When The Landlord Says "No Solar Panels On My Roof". This Is Why (Photo) by jocelynor: 12:10pm On Mar 09, 2025

Stop pushing out wrong narrative on what you don't understand please my dear.
When you use a professional and qualified Solar Expert and installer, you will live to enjoy both your systems and your roof.

What you've seen is what you expect when you patronize quacks in the field and insincere installers. Also, when you chose to buy less quality components and materials that will not be compatible to the system, but you buy them because it seems cheap to you, because you see the quote given to you by someone who understands the field as if it's too costly.

Stupid picture.

Solar panels and energy are the safest means of electricity generation and transmission. I have been using Solar since 2015. Nothing comes close to clean energy.
Re: When The Landlord Says "No Solar Panels On My Roof". This Is Why (Photo) by Cutezt(m): 12:13pm On Mar 09, 2025
First of, this image is AI generated, Secondly, a panel can not burn like that, there is absolutely nothing on it that can maintain that fire to keep burning, its absolutely false.

Don't use nonsense images and make landlord start putting unnecessary restrictions on tenants and making Nigeria nore difficult than it already is.

Fire outbreak from solar panels - rare occurrence

Also anything can cause fire in a house no be only solar

A tenant should have signed an agreement with you to be responsible for any damage (s) that may occur from their end
