Are there risks of any poisons or chemicals from the solar panels leaking into the water system over time?

Maybe, but ideas like that are what you all will use to eventually turn against solar and seek to ban going off grid as you see a disparity between those who can afford to buy solar and those who can't. Why's that a problem? Those who can will go off grid and those who can't will be left on a grid that they can't pay for, and it will crumble. We are already seeing the beginnings of this in California.

This hacker entered the thread thinking this was a good idea but leaves muttering “man, things are complicated.”
