That makes me wonder if the installation of solar panels on a roof act as "shade" similar to partial tree coverage in some way, since in many cases they add a thin cushion of shaded air between the panel and the roof. I wonder if that provides any meaningful shade or temperature reduction.
Not making an argument either way, I just hadn't really considered if this was a factor until I read your comment.
- boyter 4y agoIt does. Not in Texas but Australia and one of he rooms that got solar became slightly cooler after it was installed on those very hot days.
- usefulcat 4y agoThe shade from the panels does make a big difference in summer, according to a friend of mine in Colorado who has had panels for many years now.
