Are you guys running out of valuable... roof space or something?

It would be pretty silly to attach them to thatch now, wouldn’t it?

Probably either historic buildings or something similar to the Sedona AZ McDonald's turquoise M: https://www.rd.com/article/mcdonalds-turquoise-arches/

It sure sucks that people arent allowed to demolish century old buildings.

Sometimes age should not be a prerequisite for continuing to exist. There’s a lot of crappy old shit thats been improved upon.

You don't need to demolish a building to put solar panels on its roof.

They already exist in the Netherlands and Belgium! solar roof tiles

Oof, 200 €+ for a square meter.
That would be 60k minimum on our roof.

At first I read "disguising" as "disgusting" :P

I've been trawling the internet, trying to get info on the efficiency of these tiles vs standard PV panels. Haven't found anything yet. Anyone have any ideas?

Try parsing this, it’s in metric and I have headache right now but might be the right place to start a comparison.

You do know if these rules werent in place thered be a lot more then just destroy the roofs of these houses right?

You do know they can adjust the rules however they like, including limiting modifications to just allowing solar panels rather than carte blanche to detroy the whole building? The question is why you pretend otherwise.

That's true, but there's another side to the absolutism argument? Are we really that desperate for roof?
In many cities preserved buildings count well under or just barely over a dozen, is it worth risking the cultural value for a few square meters of solar panels?
Pompei is a special case at it is huge and disconnected from modern cities so power by other means is disruptive as well.

I don't know about other countries but there are parts of the UK where people aren't allowed to put solar panels on their roofs because "conservation". It would be cool if a similar approach could be used.
